The ECI notice has not taken into account my entire speech, says DMK youth wing secretary
DMK youth wing secretary and star campaigner Udhayanidhi Stalin on Wednesday denied the charge made out in the show-cause notice served on him by the Election Commission of India that he had violated the model code of conduct during the campaign.
He was accused of claiming in a campaign speech that former Union Ministers Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley had died, unable to cope with the pressure and torture from Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A Raja
CHENNAI: The Election Commission of India on Thursday debarred DMK deputy general secretary and MP A Raja from campaigning for the next 48 hours following a complaint by the AIADMK for his controversial statement about Tamil Nadu chief minister Edappadi K Palaniswami and his mother.
The EC delisted Raja as a star campaigner. It reprimanded Raja for violating the model code of conduct.
Raja made a “derogatory and scandalous” speech against Palaniswami during an election campaign in Thousand Lights constituency on March 26.
Tamil Nadu chief electoral officer Satyabrata Sahoo sent a report to the commission while the Central Crime Branch had registered a case against the former Union minister under sections of the IPC and the Representation of the People Act, 1951.
