An FIR has been registered against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Amit Shah who is in-charge of Uttar Pradesh over his controversial speech where he had reportedly made a remark stating that elections provide a chance to seek revenge.
As per media reports an FIR against Shah has been registered in Bijnor, under Section 153 (A) of Representation of People Act.
On Friday, after spending the previous night at a hotel just outside Muzaffarnagar, Amit Shah had met leaders of three communities - Gurjjars, Rajputs and Dalits - at a farmhouse in the town's Gandhi Colony. He apparently spoke of revenge.
"A man can live without food or sleep.
He can live when he's thirsty and hungry. But when he's insulted, he can't live. We must seek revenge for the insult heaped on us," he allegedly said.
He did the same thing a day before on Thursday while he met leaders of the Jat community at Raajhar village, 40 km from Muzzaffarnagar and delivered a similar vengeful remark.
"This election is about voting out the government that protects and gives compensation to those who killed Jats," Shah allegedly said. adding "It is about revenge and protecting honour.
