A day after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi at the Opposition INDIA bloc rally accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of “match fixing” the 2024 Lok Sabha through the use of enforcement agencies against Opposition leaders, the BJP urged the Election Commission of India (ECI) to take the “strictest action”.
A BJP delegation comprising Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri and BJP national general secretary Arun Singh lodged the complaint against Mr. Gandhi with the ECI.
Addressing reporters after their meeting with EC officials, Mr. Puri said Mr. Gandhi’s comments during the public meeting were “extremely objectionable” as they were “not just in violation of the model code of conduct but could have serious implications”.
