“EC should also issue notices to Sonia, Digvijay“

AHMEDABAD: Urging the Election Commission to adopt even standards in issuing notices to Congress president Sonia Gandhi and party general secretary Digvijay Singh also, BJP general secretary Arun Jaitley on Saturday said the controversial remark of Chief Minister Narendra Modi was a political response to the allegations against him.

The BJP has made a formal complaint to the Election Commission on Ms. Gandhi’s statement reportedly referring to Mr. Modi as “maut ke saudagar” and Digvijay Singh’s remarks that there was “Hindu terrorism” in Gujarat during their recent visits.

“It becomes imperative that the EC acts on it because it is a Constitutional body entrusted with the responsibility of conducting free and fair elections,” Mr. Jaitley said at a press conference here at which the copy of the Chief Minister’s reply to the EC notice was released. – PTI
