The Election Commission of India has issued a notice to Dravida Munnetra Kazagham's Udhayanidhi Stalin seeking an explanation by April 7 over his statement on former union ministers late Sushma Swaraj & Arun Jaitley at a rally.
At an election rally earlier, Stalin claimed that Swaraj and Jaitley died as they could not handle the pressure that Prime Minister Narendra Modi put on them.
He made the comment while targeting Modis remark that the DMK scions entry into politics had come at the cost of senior leaders of the party. The DMK leader, who is contesting the Chepauk-Triplicane constituency for the first time in the upcoming Assembly elections in Tamil Nadu, accused Modi himself of sidelining senior leaders of the BJP.
