New Delhi, Apr 8 (PTI) Reposting the Election Commission’s tweet on Trinamool Congress, Aam Aadmi Party’s national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said that there is no need to even say that the poll body was working under the BJP and taking direct instructions from it.
In a post on X, the EC had said, “ECI’s Straight-talk to Trinamool Congress. This time, the Elections in West Bengal would surely be : Fear-free, Violence-free, Intimidation-free, Inducement-free and without any Chappa, Booth Jamming and Source Jamming.” Kejriwal, responding to the post, said, “Now there is no need to even say that the Election Commission is working under BJP and taking direct instructions from BJP. This is now out in the open and extremely unfortunate,” Kejriwal said in a post on X in Hindi.
“At the very least, by tweeting in such language, don’t publicly tarnish the reputation of such an important institution,” he added.
Earlier, a meeting between a Trinamool Congress delegation and the full bench of the EC culminated on an acrimonious note, with the TMC saying the panel’s chief asked them to “get lost” at the end of the seven-minute meeting, while the EC accused them of “shouting”. PTI SSM SSM AMJ AMJ AMJ
