Congress moves EC over release of Modi biopic

New Delhi: The Congress on Monday moved the Election Commission urging it to not allow the release of the "PM Narendra Modi" biopic, saying that its purpose was "political" to get extra mileage in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Briefing reporters here, Congress leader Kapil Sibal said the party told the poll panel that a biopic on PM Modi was scheduled to be released on April 5, just a few days before the Lok Sabha polls, and its purpose "was only political to get some extra mileage."
