Journo questions CEC, runs for cover

New Delhi, March 20 (IANS) At a media meet with the full bench of the Election Commission in Kolkata, a journalist from a television channel wanted to know if the poll panel was divided in its stand on BJP's Varun Gandhi.

CEC N. Gopalaswamy shot back: 'Is your channel running such a story?'

'Yes,' said the journalist.

'Are you from... (the name of the channel)?'

Again, he said: 'Yes'.

'And do you know it's a completely wrong story? How do you manage to get such wrong information?' Gopalaswami went on.

The reporter could barely manage a faint 'thank you' before running for cover.
