BJP demands probe against Maharashtra CM | The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has decided to approach the Election Commission (EC) for indicting Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan of being involved in 'electoral malpractices'. The BJP wants an investigation to be ordered
by the EC on the entire matter. BJP Vice President Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said on
Monday that he would lead a BJP delegation to the Election Commission and ask
for a high level investigation. Party spokesperson Prakash Javadekar said he would
also be a part of the delegation. "The Maharashtra Chief Minister has provided
incorrect details of his election expenditure to the EC. He had spent more than
what is allowed and submitted wrong details of his expenditure to the EC," he
said. Naqvi added that the BJP would ask the EC to lodge a case against Chavan
for electoral malpractices. He said that as per the records submitted to the returning
officer, Chavan had spent a little over Rs 5,000 on print advertisement. Then
how did he manage full-page coverage in the newspapers. Chavan won the Bhokar
assembly seat in the recently conducted Maharashtra elections. |
