The Election Commission on Monday rejected Congress leader Jairam Ramesh's request to get a week's time to detail his allegation against Union home minister Amit Shah.
Ramesh had alleged that Shah called up 150 district magistrates across the country after voting for the Lok Sabha elections had ended.
“So far, he has spoken to 150 of them. This is blatant and brazen intimidation, showing how desperate the BJP is. Let it be very clear: the will of the people shall prevail, and on June 4th, Mr. Modi, Mr. Shah, and the BJP will exit, and the INDIA Janbandhan will be victorious. Officers should not get under any pressure and must uphold the Constitution. They are under watch,” Ramesh had said.
The poll panel has directed the Congress leader to file a response by 7 pm on Monday.
