The Delhi High Court on April 29 dismissed a petition seeking to disqualify Prime Minister Narendra Modi for 6 years for allegedly seeking votes for the upcoming Lok Sabha election “in the name of god and place of worship” and violating the model code of conduct (MCC).
A Bench led by Justice Sachin Datta observed the petition as ‘thoroughly misconceived’ and said that the Election Commission is presently seized of the complaint against Mr. Modi.
