In the complaint, the Congress pointed ou that Badal and other Akali Dal leaders, during their speeches at the function at Khatkar Kalan, the village of Bhagat Singh, 80 km from here, asked the gathering to vote for the Akali Dal-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidates.
The complaint also said that Badal urged voters to support BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi to form the next union government.
