NEW DELHI: Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha L.K. Advani on Friday asked why the Election Commission thought it fit to order the Uttar Pradesh Government to lodge a first information report (FIR) against the BJP president. Referring to the CD controversy, Mr. Advani said: "I don't know anything about that CD. But I was told that it shows scenes of demolition of the Babri structure and the Godhra train carnage. That cannot be described as provocative." He was speaking at the BJP founding day at the party headquarters here. Referring to the party's election victories in Punjab and Uttarakhand, he said: "Nobody can stop us. How can action be taken against the president of a political party because of a CD? Can action be threatened against a party [as] the EC has done?" Mr. Advani told the party workers he did not think there was anything wrong with the CD and the Commission's order that an FIR be registered against the party president was not warranted.
