Kalyan smells foul play in sending forces

He added: “I am well versed with the democratic constitutional rights and limitations of the states, the central government and the Election Commission. As far as my knowledge goes central forces cannot be sent or deployed in a state until the Election Commission issues notification regarding election. Hence it is my personal question 'under whose directive the central forces have been sent to the state?' The Election Commission sending central force to the state without prior notification appears to me as an act of political vindictiveness.”
