After Yogi & Mayawati, EC acts tough on Azam Khan, Maneka Gandhi

After taking a tough action against Yogi Adityanath and Mayawati, the Election Commission on Monday evening barred SP leader Azam Khan and Union Minister &  BJP leader Maneka Gandhi from from campaigning in the Lok Sabha elections for 48 and 72 hours respectively.

It will be effective from 10 am tomorrow.

 

Without taking names, Khan on Sunday had said at an election rally in Uttar Pradesh's Rampur district that it took "you 17 years to understand her reality" but, "I could recognise it in 17 days that she wears a khaki underwear". The BJP has pitted actor-turned-politician Jaya Prada against Khan from the Rampur Lok Sabha seat.
