The Deputy Election Commissioner Sandeep Saxena said that an FIR has been filed against Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi for violation of Representation of Peoples Act by holding press conference during poll hours.
He said despite Commission’s instructions, Mr. Gogoi went ahead with the press conference within 48 hours of closure of polls which is prohibited under election laws. He said the allegations leveled by him against BJP leader Himanta Biswa Sarma and others were found not valid.
