ECI holds meeting to discuss complaints against Modi, Shah, Rahul over MCC violation

New Delhi, :  Amid growing demands by opposition parties to take action against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah over the alleged violation of Model Code of Conduct, the Election Commission on Tuesday held a meeting to discuss current issues.
According to Commission sources, the poll body is also taking up the complaints against Congress president Rahul Gandhi over MCC violation.
“Regular meetings of the Commission are held every Tuesday and Friday and also whenever required”, said spokesperson of the poll body.
It is learned that the Commission had discussed the possible dates for the Jammu and Kashmir assembly election in the meeting.
Earlier in the day, the Supreme Court has deferred hearing the petition filed by Congress leaders against Mr Modi and Mr Shah.
The apex court also asked the petitioners to wait for the Commissions’ decision. The case will again be considered on May 3.
On Monday, a Congress delegation, comprising Abhishek Manu Singhvi, Randeep Singh Surjewala and Jairam Ramesh met the Commission and reiterated their demand to take action against Prime Minister over violation of MCC.
“We had given 10 complaints to the Election Commission. However, they have neither accepted or rejected it. It is unacceptable. We cannot do more than this. We expect that the Commission to discharge its constitutional duty without hesitation, immediately”, said Mr Singhvi.
