New Delhi: The Election Commission has issued a fresh show cause notice to Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu for prima facie violating the Model Code of Conduct by allegedly making disparaging remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
He was given a day to reply to the notice that was issued Friday by the commission.
The poll panel had received a complaint from the BJP that Sidhu, during a rally in Madhya Pradesh on April 29, had made disparaging comments about Modi.
He had reportedly accused the prime minister of "making money in the Rafale jet deal" and also "allowing" the rich to escape the country after "robbing" nationalised banks.
