CHENNAI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi delivered a speech mentioning the name of Sabarimala at the election rally organised in Tamil Nadu. He made the speech breaching the ban of the election commission not to mention Sabarimala issue.

Modi said the congress, Muslim League and the Left parties in Kerala are trying to destroy Sabarimala faith. The BJP is always with the devotees, he added. However, Modi did not mention Sabarimala in the programme organised in Kozhikode the other day.

The state leadership had earlier clarified that they will mainly focus on Sabarimala issue. Soon after this, the Prime Minister voiced the issue in the national level. The BJP is mainly focusing on Sabarimala challenging the election commission directly.
