Modi@Madison speech in BJP campaign, Opposition complains to EC
October 13, 2014 11:57
So, is the PM's Madison Square Garden speech a private one?
That's what the BJP has been saying after the Congress complained to the Election Commission against a repeat telecast of Narendra Modi's speech at New York's MSG, by local channels in Maharashtra.
The state goes to vote on Wednesday.
Modi's speech was telecast during prime-time on Marathi channels. The BJP also put out newspaper ads urging people to catch the telecast of what they called "The Speech That's Creating Waves across the World" and listed the time slots on various channels.
NCP's Ajit Pawar sais that Modi went to the US as a representative of India and as the PM of the nation. To use that to win votes in a state election was therefore incorrect.
