Charge Against the Polling Organization Over the Leader's Rearrest

Credent Tv: The Election Commission of India was allegedly “looking away” when a BJP Chief Minister and an actor who later became a BJP MP “spread communal bile during Gujarat election,” according to Derek O’Brien.

Derek O’Brien, the leader of Trinamool, has accused the Election Commission of India of “looking away” when a BJP Chief Minister and an actor who later became a BJP MP “spread communal bile during Gujarat election” a day after Trinamool’s Saket Gokhale was arrested once more after being released on bail in an alleged “fake tweet” case against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. That’s why the Supreme Court believes that EC is a stooge, he said.
Derek O’Brien said that the EC ignored alleged hate speech by BJP officials when “arresting” Saket Gokhale as he was travelling to the airport after being granted bail in a case brought by the Gujarat police.

“BJP CM and actor-turned-BJP MP promote anti-communal bile during Gujarat election. What does EC do? Look away,” the statement reads.

The Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Aaftab Amin Poonawala, the man detained for the murder of his girlfriend in Delhi, have come under fire for allegedly racially polarising the issue in advance of the Gujarat Assembly elections. Actor Paresh Rawal has also come under fire for remarks he made about Bengalis at an election rally in Gujarat and has been questioned by the Kolkata Police.

Mr. Gokhale was “being hounded by Gujarat Police,” he had already claimed.

Following the completion of his police incarceration, Saket Gokhale was brought before the court and granted release; however, the Morbi police quickly detained him once more for another offence that had been reported there.

Paresh Rawal, a politician for the governing BJP, insulted Bengalis by referring to them as “cooked fish” while claiming that the people of Gujarat will bear inflation but not the “Bangladeshis and Rohingya” living next door.

During the Gujarat Assembly election campaigns, Himanta Biswa Sarma sparked controversy by bringing up the brutal murder of Shraddha Walkar, tying it to so-called “love jihad,” and asserting that “Hindus typically don’t contribute to riots.”

According to Gujarat police, the case against Mr. Gokhale stems from a tweet alleging that PM Modi’s November visit to Morbi, Gujarat, the scene of a bridge collapse in which over 140 people died, cost the state government Rs. 30 crore, or roughly six times the total compensation paid to the victims of the tragedy. has allegedly falsified documentation for his tweets on the matter as well, according to police sources.

The tweet, which was accompanied by what looked to be a newspaper clipping, had caught the attention of the government’s fact-checking division. According to RTI, the PM’s trip to Morbi cost $30 crore. In its fact-check of December 1, the Press Information Bureau stated that it was false and that “no such RTI response was given.”
