EC should act on PM Modi for inciting people: Mallikarjun Kharge

Congress president Malliakarjun Kharge

Mumbai: Reacting to the charge of Prime Minister Narendra Modi that, "SP, Congress will run bulldozer over Ram Temple if voted to power", Congress president Malliakarjun Kharge said that the former is "provoking" people and the Election Commission "should take action".

He also accused PM Modi of supporting the "illegal" Mahayuti government in Maharashtra.

"We have not used bulldozers to date... The Election Commission should take action against those who make instigating speeches. The Prime Minister himself is doing it. He is provoking people. After our government comes, everything will be protected as per our Constitution, we will follow the Constitution," Kharge told reporters here.

He was speaking at a press conference in Mumbai. Nationalist Congress Party (SP) Sharad Pawar and former Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackery were also present.

"INDIA bloc will win 46 out of 48 seats in Maharashtra. People are saying this themselves. Our alliance will win maximum seats and defeat BJP...," Kharge claimed. (with Agency inputs)
