New Delhi: Vishwa Hindu Parishad on Friday moved the Election Commission seeking a ban on Congress and its leaders for allegedly wooing voters in the name of religion and caste.

A delegation of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) met the Election Commission to thank it for holding the implementation of sub-quota reservation in the five election-bound states.

The delegation headed by its vice president Om Prakash Singhal said they have asked the EC to ban Congress for wooing Muslim voters and "for dividing the country on religious lines".

"We have appealed EC to ban Congress and stop its leaders from wooing voters in the name of religion and caste," the delegation stated.

After meeting the EC, the media chief of VHP Delhi said that they had also brought to the notice of the poll body regarding different statements of Congress leaders on Batla House encounter and increase in Muslim quota in their election speeches.

India was better off during the rule of the Maharajas. Democracy has brought fighting, loot and waste of talent and resources. The Nehru family dismantled India`s age old system of Raj Niti and introduced the British Party Niti. Nateeja saamne hai.

ZEE News is too biased a channel to not cover it in the main headlines only because it is favouring Congress openly which is not good for the democracy. It was obvious yesterday in Deoband election coverage by Prasoon Vajpayee.be unbiased and then your channel will be respected.

Indian politicians are making a mockery of democracy, constitution, and the democratic processes by dividing people/all Indian citizens to serving their own, politicians, self interest. It is enough. Let the fairness, justice and freedom ring for all citizens to living a dignified life and be what they can be on the basis of their performance record, instead of creating quotas based on race, religion, or ethnicity. India gained freedom seventy years ago. If someone has not integrated into the system so far, they never will be. Don`t create inefficiencies of scales by favoring one class or religion over other and appointing incompetent people to critical positions through quota system. Its abolition, quota system, is overdue in my humble opinion. Given that some people are poor and can`t afford education and are deprived of using their God given potential then it becomes essential as a duty of every one and the nation to enabling and empowering such humankind to utilizing their best talent and potentials, based on performance at par with everyone else, avoiding discriminatory quota system that results in harmful division and discriminatory in the society and without any doubt violates the principle of fairness and justice for all. Thanks. Respectfully, submitted, Onkar

Iam also of the same opinion. Anna like people should have come to fight for this. No political party is going to support this because they will loose votes. That is why I am of the opinion that a DICTATOR should take charge of this country to do some good & just things.

A big joke, A party with name itself a religion base and born for particular religion wooing is accusing other party for religious wooing , VHP must change party name first then talk as what talking & Congress is working or wooing Indian citizen not other countries people.

VHP is not a political party, my dear. I hope u know the difference between a political party and a religious organisation. Have u read the news where in AIIPULM has appealed not to vote for wahabis and BJP. What is that?
