Delhi/IBNS: The Election Commission of India has gone to the Supreme Court over Madras High Court's "should be booked for murder" comments.

Slamming the poll body over its way of conducting elections in various parts of India, the Madras High Court on Monday last had held Election Commission of India (ECI) officers solely responsible for the Covid-19 second wave which has crippled the country.

"Election Commission singularly responsible for Covid-19 second wave, officers should be booked for murder probably," the high court had said, coming down heavily on the poll body.
