Allegedly, a video shows Union Minister and Madhya Pradesh BJP leader Narendra Singh Tomar's son, Devendra Pratap Singh Tomar, discussing transactions worth crores and this has sparked major controversy just days ahead of state polls. In response to a complaint lodged by Devendra Tomar, who asserts that someone doctored the now-viral video to tarnish his image, authorities have filed a case against an unknown person.
An unknown person now has a case filed against them in response to a complaint. Devendra Pratap Singh Tomar, the Minister's son, lodged an application at the civil line police station in Morena district, alleging that someone is devising a conspiracy against him by manipulating the film.
"I have noticed a viral video falsely propagating that I have made transactions worth crores. Someone has edited this fake video to hatch a conspiracy against me and create a negative impression. People are making fake video clips viral on various social media platforms with the malicious intention of damaging my public image and reputation," wrote Tomar.
He also stated that none of his bank accounts, nor those of his family or anybody linked with it, received any such sum. He absolutely dismissed it as manufactured and fake.
Tomar further demanded a thorough investigation of the alleged plot, identification of the perpetrators, and application of the harshest possible penalty.
