Freeze Cong’s poll symbol over attempt to give communal color to the elections : BJP

Alleging that Gandhi’s remarks were in violation of model code of conduct, Javadekar said, “We have requested the Election Commission that Congress party’s election symbol should be frozen.”

Javadekar said that as soon as the schedule for Assembly elections in five states were declared, the Congress has started raising communal tension and seeking votes on the basis of religion.

BJP national secretary Singh said that contents of Gandhi’s speech is not only offensive but also an attempt to communalise the polity in poll-bound states.
