Congress MP Pradip Bhattacharya on Sunday wrote to the Election Commission, saying the media coverage of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Kedarnath was in violation of the model code of conduct.
He said he has requested the EC to take stern action in this regard. “The way he (Modi) ensured media coverage of his trip... is nothing but a violation of MCC. Is this not a way to influence voters ahead of polls,” Mr. Bhattacharya said.
The Trinamool Congress has also complained to the poll panel on the issue.
