Interestingly, the actor has wrongly addressed the complaint to the Tamil Nadu State Election Commission who is the authority to hold local body polls instead of the CEO.
A day after his nomination as an independent candidate for the December 21 RK Nagar bypoll was rejected, actor Vishal Krishna on Wednesday complained to the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Rajesh Lakhoni. Vishal sought a reversal of the decision by the Returning Officer (RO) of RK Nagar Assembly Constituency who rejected his papers after accepting it initially.
In a written complaint submitted to the CEO, the actor detailed on Tuesday's events that led to the ultimate rejection of his nomination papers. "People know what happened yesterday. They know how a rejected application was reconsidered before being rejected again. I have submitted a complaint to him (Lakhoni) on all that happened," Vishal told reporters at the Secretariat after the meeting.
Interestingly, the actor has wrongly addressed the complaint to the Tamil Nadu State Election Commission who is the authority to hold local body polls instead of the CEO.
On Tuesday, the RO's office saw a dramatic situation when RO K Velusamy rejected Vishal's nomination, prompting the actor to stage a dharna. Vishal had later claimed his nomination was accepted, and 'thanked' the EC for the same. However, the RO, late in the night, said Vishal's nomination was rejected after a summary enquiry.
The actor also sought to raise the matter with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Ram Nath Kovind's office through their twitter handles. He also said that he planned to meet Tamil Nadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit to lodge a 'complaint'.
Chief Minister Edapadi K Palanisami, while addressing his party workers in RK Nagar, denied any role of his party in the rejection of the actor's nomination. He said that the election authorities would not have rejected the nomination if the papers found to be in order.
