Allegations continue to fly thick and fast in the Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha constituency with the Left Democratic Front (LDF) petitioning the Election Commission against BJP leader Rajeev Chandrasekhar, alleging that he misrepresented information regarding his income and assets in his election affidavit.
The complaint from the LDF Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha Election Committee comes just two days after the United Democratic Front (UDF) made a similar allegation against Mr. Chandrasekhar.
Among the various charges, the LDF has accused the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) candidate of withholding details of his major holding company, Jupiter Capital, while only declaring the subsidiary companies. This, they claim, is an attempt “to hide the complex web of companies used to hide his true assets”.
