Joint CEO Jaydip Mukherjee said that they had received a report from the DM of North 24-Parganas district, and they were scrutinising it before taking the next course of action.
The DM, who is also the District Electoral Officer, had issued the show-cause notice to Sorcar day before yesterday on the basis of a complaint by TMC candidate from the seat Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar, sources in the CEO's office said.
Local TMC contestant Ghosh Dastidar, who found it objectionable and violative of the Model Code of Conduct, lodged a complaint with the EC demanding action against Sorcar.
"Such a remark against the CM is highly objectionable and violative of the MCC. We demand immediate action against the BJP candidate," Ghosh Dastidar said, adding, "We wonder how a responsible person becomes so irresponsible about his comment against a woman chief minister.
