In his reply to the commission's notice for which he was given some extra time, he said, "at no stage, I have controverted the affidavit filed by the Gujarat Government in the Supreme Court of India. I have already clarified my position that I do not support fake encounters".

Observing that his speech has to be read in its entirety, he said it was a political response to Congress president Sonia Gandhi referring him as those who rule the Gujarat as a 'Mout-ke-saudagar'.

"Surely it cannot be policy of the EC first to ignore the violation of the Code of Conduct in her statement and then censor my political response to that statement," Modi said adding his speech was entirely against terrorism.

"At no point of time, I have either justified the specific encounter of Sohrabuddin's case," the Chief Minister said seeking withdrawal of the EC notice.
