The Election Commission has expressed "surprise" and "disappointment" over the Bharatiya Janata Party's decision to hold protests against denial of permission to its prime ministerial pick Narendra Modi for a rally in Varanasi's Beniyabagh area on Thursday.

Hours ahead of his "protest" roadshow in Varanasi, Narendra Modi tweeted on Thursday, "It is unfortunate that EC is not concerned about the institution's neutrality & that is why our Karyakartas have to embark on a Satyagraha."

He also appealed to his party workers to maintain peace: "I appeal to my Karyakarta sisters & brothers to maintain peace & ensure that people do not face any difficulty."
