A delegation of the BJP met EC in Delhi and complained against the Congress MP for talking about Karnataka's 'sovereignty', adding that she is heading the 'tukde-tukde' gang. Party leader Tarun Chugh said that BJP has moved EC demanding derecognition of Congress for using the 'sovereignty' term for Karnataka and sought an apology from her.
