The Election Commission issued a showcause notice to BJP MP Yogi Adityanath for provocative speeches.
Charging him with violating the model code of conduct, the EC said, "No party or candidate shall indulge in any activity which may aggravate existing differences or create mutual hatred or cause tension between different castes and communities, religious or linguistic." Adityanath, the EC said, has flouted the code and attempted to willfully divide people along communal lines.
The EC, while issuing the notice to Adityanath, has asked him to give clarification on the matter by Wednesday evening.
