  • EC issues notice to Rahul Gandhi over ‘Panauti’ and ‘Jebkatra’ jibe on PM Modi: ‘Be more cautious…’ – The Economic Times Video

    Amid preparations by various political parties for the Lok Sabha election, the Election Commission of India (ECI) has issued an advisory to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to be cautious in his public utterances, sources said. They said ECI has advised the Congress leader to be “more careful and cautious” in his public utterances in the future. The Delhi High Court had earlier asked the ECI to take appropriate action against the Congress MP for his speech in November last year in which he used the expression ‘pickpocket’ while attacking BJP leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Election Commission had also issued notice to Rahul Gandhi over his ‘panauti and pickpocket’ jibes at PM Modi.
