Communist Party of India (Marxist) general secretary Sitaram Yechury on Sunday wrote to the Election Commission alleging poll code violations by BJP leaders, and claimed that more and more leaders of the saffron party are now “resorting to inciting hatred using anti-Muslim tropes”.
Mr. Yechury, in a post on X, shared a copy of his complaint to the EC, and said the poll panel must act immediately.
“The ECI must act immediately. ECI cannot consciously remain silent, which is tantamount to the betrayal of its constitutional mandate to conduct free and fair polls,” he said.
