- 5 years ago
The BJP's showdown with the Election Commission is expected to peak today over the party's prime ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi, being refused permission for a large rally in the heart of Varanasi, from where he is contesting his first parliamentary election.
This morning, Mr Modi tweeted that "It is unfortunate that EC is not concerned about the institution's neutrality."
Apart from the rally, Mr Modi, 64, was scheduled to hold prayers on the banks of the Ganga and meet with 150 citizens at a local hotel. Though the Election Commission's representative sanctioned those functions last evening, the BJP said they stood cancelled because the clearances came through too late to be able to advertise them.
"My profound apologies to Ganga Maa for not being able to perform Aarti today," Mr Modi tweeted
