A metropolitan court in Ahmedabad admitted a 2,000-page closure report filed by Ahmedabad police on Friday in connection with the alleged Model Code of Conduct violation case during the last lok Sabha elections against then Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi.
The case was filed against Modi, who after utilising his franchise to vote in the lok Sabha polls on April 30th, 2014 had taken selfie from his mobile while showcasing BJP’s symbol ‘lotus’ in front of camera and also addressed a Press conference near a polling booth.
The case has been disposed off and a clean chit to Modi given by police and the court. While accepting the closure report the court said that no case was made out against the PM Modi. Thus the court has disposed off the case.
On the basis of a complaint filed by the Congress, the Election Commission of India (ECI) had diverted the matter to the Gujarat Government. The report said that neither Modi nor his party had given invitation to the media to interact with him outside the polling booth in Ahmedabad.
