The Nanavati Commission, probing the post-Godhra riot cases, disposed of an application for summoning Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and six other persons, even as it directed three CMO officials to file affidavits giving details of their telephonic conversation during the 2002 communal clash. The Commission said in its order that it does not think proper to summon the Chief Minister Narendra Modi, then home minister or any other ministers and question them regarding those incidents merely on basis of vague allegation based upon wrong or unwarranted assumptions. <br/><br/>The Commission, however, directed three CMO officials to file affidavits giving details of their telephonic conversation with some of the ministers and accused of February 27, 2002 Godhra train carnage. The names of three officials figure in the phone call record CDs submitted to the panel by IPS officer Rahul Sharma.
