| Congress alleges violation of code of conduct
The state Congress has alleged that the inauguration
of the Ahmedabad-Vadodara Expressway by the BJP government on Tuesday
is a clear violation of the code of conduct by the BJP in wake of election
of self-governing bodies slated in mid-February.
The party has already filed
an official complaint to the state election commission in this regard,
informed an official statement issued by party spokesperson Arvind Sanghvi
on Tuesday.
State Congress claimed that
the Ahmedabad-Vadodara Expressway that passes through Kheda could have
negative repercussions for the Congress in the forthcoming elections,
the release stated.
Chief minister Narendra Modi
and his party have violated the code of conduct by inaugurating the expressway
that passes through Kheda, considering the state election commission has
already declared the elections of Kheda district panchayat. Elections
of other self-governing institutions have also been announced.
