Prakash Rah who is contesting from Bangalore Central Constituency in the upcoming Lok Sabha Polls is now facing a serious allegation.
Jagan Kumar, a Social Activist from Bengaluru, lodged a complaint with the Chief Electoral Officer in Karnataka accusing Prakash Raj of having four EPIC Cards in three states. An appeal was made to the Election Commission seeking the rejection of the candidates of the Actor-turned-Politician. 'Prakash Raj registered his name in the voter list from three place, two from Velachery in Tamil Nadu and Serilingampally in Telangana. He has got one more voter card in the Shanthinagar Address. This comes under violation of Sections 17, 18 and 31 of the Representation of People's Act 1950,' says the Complainant.
If the charges against him are proven, Prakash Raj will have to face one year jail sentence and Rs 1,000 fine.
Prakash Raj, however, termed the complaint as an attempt to stop his political entry. He alleged that people like Jagan Kumar have no work other than maligning him with baseless allegations.
