New Delhi, May 1 (IANS) The Congress Thursday accused BJP leader Amit Shah of violating the poll code by appealing to people to vote for Narendra Modi in Ahmedabad April 30, and demanded action against him.
"Campaigning was not allowed on April 30, since polling was going on but he (Shah) addressed a gathering and media persons and made an appeal to vote for the BJP ... The tone and tenor of what Shah said is in violation of section 126/130 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951," K.C. Mittal, Congress secretary, legal and human rights department, said in a letter to the Election Commission.

Shah, a close aide of Modi, had referred to the BJP prime ministerial candidate as the change people wanted, after casting his vote at Navapur area in Ahmedabad.
