An appeal seeking a six-year ban on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for violating the Model Code of
Conduct was dismissed by the Delhi High Court on Monday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s disqualification from contesting elections for violating the Model
Code of Conduct (MCC) was dismissed by the Delhi High Court on Monday.
During an election rally in Uttar Pradesh, the Prime Minister violated the model code of conduct,
according to the plea filed by lawyer Anand S Jondhale.
According to Justice Sachin Datta, the petitioner “presumes” that the model code of conduct had
been violated, and that the high court should not direct the Election Commission to take any
particular view.
As the petitioner had already approached the poll body, the court said it could take an independent
view of the complaint.
Also, Advocate Siddhant Kumar, who represented the Election Commission, stated that the
complaint would be “duly processed” and orders would be passed.Anand had alleged that PM Modi had referred to Hindu and Sikh deities at an election rally in
Pilbhit, Uttar Pradesh, on April 9.
INDIA bloc parties “have always hated the construction of the Ram Temple” in Ayodhya, the Prime
Minister said in his speech.
Ram Lalla was insulted after they rejected the Ram Temple’s Pratishtha invitation. During the rally
to support Jitin Prasada, the Prime Minister had said that those from his party who attended the
ceremony would be suspended from the party for six years.
Additionally, he had stated that the INDIA bloc had “decided to finish ‘Shakti'”.
Congress disrespected ‘Shakti,’ which is worshipped in the entire country today. Any worshipper of
‘Shakti’ will never forgive Congress, he said.
