Congress has written a letter to the Election Commission against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah and asked them to investigate the BJP and its leaders for their brazen election violations. Giving information on the issue, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said that in the letter it has been said that PM Modi and the Home Minister have given divisive, false and malicious speeches in Maharashtra and Jharkhand.
It is written in the letter that Narendra Modi made allegations against prominent Congress leaders and former Prime Ministers, such as late Jawaharlal Nehru, late Indira Gandhi and late Rajiv Gandhi. Modi alleged that Congress leaders are against the Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST) communities and Tribes and Other Backward Classes (OBCs).
'PM Modi also accused Rahul Gandhi'
In the letter written to the Election Commission it has been written that Narendra Modi Made allegations against the current leadership of Congress, Rahul Gandhi and claimed that Congress is against the interests of ST, SC and OBC communities. In what has become a common storyline in the BJP campaign in Jharkhand, Amit Shah also accused the INC of planning to take away reservations from members of ST, SC and OBC communities and give them to members of a particular religious minority community. .
'Amit Shah made false promises in his speech'
The statements given by Amit Shah are only made with the intention of instigating voters on the basis of religion and caste. To consolidate votes and encourage them to vote in favor of BJP by promoting communal insecurity. Shah, through his campaign speeches, has made false claims to tarnish the reputation of the Indian National Congress, incite enmity on the basis of religion and caste and mislead the general public.
