New Delhi, May 8 (PTI) The BJP on Monday moved the Election Commission seeking action against Congress leader Sonia Gandhi and derecognition of her party for her use of the term "sovereignty" for Karnataka during the state poll campaign.
A BJP delegation headed by Union minister Bhupender Yadav submitted a memorandum to the poll watchdog over the issue.
"Karnataka is a very important member state in the Union of India and any call to protect the sovereignty of a member state of the Union of India amounts to a call for secession and is fraught with perilous and pernicious consequences," the party said.
