In its complaint to the Election Commission, the BJP said that Lalu Prasad Yadav went to a polling booth carrying a towel of green colour with his party symbol.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday filed a complaint against Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, alleging that he violated the Mode code of conduct while exercising his right to franchise on Saturday in Bihar.
In his complaint to the Election Commission of India (ECI) S. D. Sanjay, state BJP legal cell president, said, "Lalu Prasad Yadav, along with his wife Rabri Devi and daughter Rohini Acharya, went to the polling booth at veterinary college ground in Patna during which the RJD chief was carrying a towel of green colour with his party symbol. Such an act amounts to a violation of the model code of conduct. He was displaying his party symbol lantern and encouraging people to vote for his party."
"I have requested the ECI to take action against Lalu and sought an FIR in this matter," Sanjay said.
