"Why are you not acting? What is your intention? If you feel wrong about what I am saying now, then you are free to lodge another case against me," Modi told an election rally here.
"It is your responsibility to ensure impartial polls. I am making very serious allegations," he said accusing the Election Commission of having failed to take action.
He said poll violence and booth rigging took place in West Bengal, Bihar and western Uttar Pradesh.
Election Commission had taken serious note of the Gujarat Chief Minister's violation of the electoral laws, under which no person can display any election matter or address a meeting in a polling booth on the day of election, and an FIR against Modi following its direction.
Modi had told a poll campaign at Tirupati that he had not committed any offence that warranted an FIR and that he only showed a lotus badge to people after casting his vote at Gandhinagar on April 30. Lotus is the symbol of BJP.
Defends Babul Supriyo
Modi strongly defended Bollywood playback singer Babul Supriyo, who recently managed to obtained bail in connection with a criminal case for blockade of National Highway 60 allegedly by him along with party workers.
Supriyo, BJP candidate for Asansol Lok Sabha constituency, had blocked the National Highway 60, near Raniganj, to air protest against an attack on a party procession allegedly by Trinamool Congress supporters on April 12. The 44-year-old Supriyo had already been booked for six other cases, including one under Arms Act, for allegedly intimidating Trinamool Congress workers brandishing fire arms the same day.
