Chidambaram hits out at govt and EC over Gujarat poll dates
Congress leader P Chidambaram took a dig at Election Commission and the Centre over delay in announcing Gujarat poll dates. Chidambaram said EC will be recalled from its "extended holiday" after the government has announced all concessions, "freebies" to lure voters. Notably, EC announced dates for Himachal Pradesh assembly elections only, even though both the states are due for polls.
