The poll panel also asked the state government to lodge an FIR against the two leaders for making hate speeches during the election campaign. &ldquo;Necessary FIRs should be immediately filed and the criminal proceeding initiated against the two leaders,&rdquo; said the panel.
While Shah, a close aide of BJP&rsquo;s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, asked the voters to cast their ballot to avenge the Muzaffarnagar riots, Khan, a minister in the Akhilesh Yadav government, said Muslims soldiers were to be credited for India&rsquo;s victory in the Kargil war.
