EC issues notice to Priyanka Gandhi over ‘false’ statement against PM Modi

Hindustan Times  

The Election Commission on Tuesday issued a show-cause notice to Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra for allegedly making “unverified and false statements” regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During a public rally at Madhya Pradesh's Sanwer Assembly Constituency, Vadra had purportedly alleged that Prime Minister Modi had given away PSU Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited “to his industrialist friends”. “It has been alleged that while addressing a public rally at Sanwer Assembly Constituency in Madhya Pradesh, you have made unverified and false statements in respect of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi that have the potential to mislead the public and tarnish the image of the Prime Minister,” the poll body said. The development comes hours after the poll panel issued a notice to the Aam Aadmi Party over alleged disparaging, insulting and defamatory remark against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on social media.
