A day after the Uttar Pradesh Police registered a case against Bharatiya Janata Party general secretary Amit Shah for his alleged hate speeches, the Election Commission on Monday issued a notice demanding explanation within three days as to why action should not be taken against him for violation of the Model Code of Conduct.

The EC has taken cognisance of the election campaign speeches by Mr. Shah in Bijnore, Shamli and Muzaffarnagar districts of Uttar Pradesh.

Issuing the show-cause notice, the Commission said it was, prima facie, of the opinion that by making the alleged speeches, Mr. Shah had violated various provisions of the model code.
