On Apr 6, a First Information Report (FIR) was lodged against Shah at Bijnor in Uttar Pradesh for his alleged hate speech.
Triggering a controversy, Shah earlier urged people to take their revenge by voting for his party in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
Addressing a rally at a riot-hit Jat village near Muzaffarnagar, Shah said, "If you want to take revenge, vote for the BJP."
"In today's time you can't take revenge with swords and arrows like it was done in the Mughal era. But today the people are constantly being denied justice ... they are not getting their rights. So, you press the right button (on the Electronic Voting Machine) and show people their right place," he said.
