The Delhi High Court today dismissed a plea seeking to disqualify Prime Minister Narendra Modi for six years for allegedly seeking votes for the Bhartiya Janata Party in the name of religion.
The Court was of the view that the plea was “thoroughly misconceived” since the petitioner had approached the court when the Election Commission was yet to take a call on his representation seeking similar relief.
The Election Commission, however, had taken cognizance and directed BJP president JP Nadda to ensure that all star campaigners maintain highest level of discourse expected from them.
