Digvijaya Singh defends Varanasi DM, says he acted in an impartial manner
Congress General Secretary Digvijaya Singh on Friday said in Indore that Varanasi District Magistrate acted in an impartial manner by denying permission to a rally of BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.

Congress General Secretary Digvijaya Singh on Friday said in Indore that Varanasi District Magistrate acted in an impartial manner by denying permission to a rally of BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.

"Modi is facing a threat to his life and in the absence of police and Intelligence Bureau report it is not possible for the district administration to grant permission to him for holding a rally. Had anything happened, the DM could have lost his job," said Digvijaya.

"The DM has acted in an impartial manner and also gave permission to a number of Modi's (other) programmes. But BJP protested only to create an issue. BJP has no respect for the constitutional bodies," he said.

Singh also denied that UPA did a U-turn on appointment of judge to probe the snooping allegations against Modi and Gujarat government because of the pressure from Congress's allies.

"No U-turn was made. Model code of conduct is in force in the country and therefore it is not possible to appoint a judge now," he said.
