Congress MLC from Maharashtra Bhai Jagtap had given a controversial statement regarding the Election Commission on Friday.
After the results of Maharashtra elections, Congress is continuously raising questions on the Election Commission and EVMs. On Friday, Congress MLC Bhai Jagtap gave a controversial statement regarding the Election Commission.
While talking to news agency IANS, Jagtap said – Election Commission is a dog, who sits outside PM Modi’s bungalow. Unfortunately, all the agencies that have been created to strengthen democracy are being used to create scandals across the country.
On Jagtap’s statement, BJP leader Kirit Somaiya on Saturday said – This is an insult to the constitutional body. It won’t be tolerated. I have filed a complaint against Jagtap with the Election Commission and Mumbai Police.
Jagtap refused to apologize, said – whatever he said was correct
Jagtap refused to apologize for his controversial remarks. Jagtap said that the country’s democracy has been discredited due to the flattery of the Election Commission. On the dog comment, he said, I will not apologize at all. If they are working under pressure from the Prime Minister and other ministers then what I have said is correct.
The Election Commission is there to further strengthen the democracy of the country, not to serve anyone. I stand by my words. Jagtap further said that Congress brought EVM technology because it was being used in France and America, but after 2009, doubts started arising over its use.
