NGO wants Narendra Modi to file affidavit before Nanavati panel

She submitted that number of accused like Jaydeep Patel, Maya Kodnani, were in contact with the Modi's office, which is established by phone call records.

Also, there were as many as 15 phone calls from CM's office to the then police commissioner P C Pande on February 28, 2002, Setalvad said.

"Therefore, Modi should, if not be called, be compelled to file an affidavit before Commission, explaining his role during the post-Godhra riots," she submitted.

Setalvad also submitted that the police control room records during the period of riots have been destroyed and an inquiry needs to be held in this matter.

She also requested affidavits from Pande, the then DGP K Chakravarti, JCP M K Tandon, DCP P B Pondia, Former Chief Secretary Subha Rao, Former Health Minister Ashok Bhatt, Former Urban Development Minister I K Jadeja, ex-MoS Home Govardhan Jhadafiya, and other BJP leaders.
