Modi misused official machinery in nomination: Congress

New Delhi: The Congress Wednesday complained to the Election Commission that BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi had misused official machinery while filing his nomination from Gujarat's Vadodara and sought special central observers be deployed

He said the "kind of atmosphere being created by Modi" was denying an equal opportunity to the Congress candidate.

The party sought special central observers may be stationed "whom the Congress candidate can approach and get the difficulties and issues resolved at the appropriate level".

"This will help the Congress candidate to at least raise grievances for resolution before an independent authority, not under any kind of influence from Modi," the party said.
