Retired IAS officer, Mr. E A S Sarma (1965 batch Andhra Pradesh cadre), wrote to the Election Commission of India expressing his discontentment regarding one of Prime Minister Modi’s speeches (during one of his ongoing election rallies) where the PM (according to Mr. Sarma) allegedly breached election campaign rules.

The contentious issue arose during the Prime Minister’s visit to Tamil Nadu, where he criticised the opposition (INDIA) bloc’s remarks on “nari shakti” and “matru shakti” — citing it as an insult to Hinduism. PM Modi had said, “In its rally in Mumbai’s Shivaji Park, the ‘INDI Alliance’ openly announced that it wants to destroy the shakti that the Hindu religion has faith in.
