Arvind Kejriwal slapped with show cause

EC referred to a complaint by Upadhyay in which he had alleged that in a press conference the AAP leader had claimed that BJP is trying to incite communal violence in Delhi and has spread communal violence in Trilokpuri and Nandnagri and is also trying to do so in Nangloi and Bawana.

The EC also referred to his alleged remarks that BJP is also responsible for attacks on churches in Delhi. The EC said it is prima facie of the view that by making the statement, "you (Kejriwal) have violated the provision of sub-para (1) of para I of Model Code of Conduct."

It reminded Kejriwal of provision in the Model Code of Conduct which provides that "no party or candidate shall indulge in any activity which may aggravate existing differences or create mutual hatred or cause tension between different castes and communities, religious or linguistic".
