Pawan Kalyan's party gets EC nod

December 11, 2014 12:22

The Janasena Party of popular Telugu actor Pavan Kalyan, who played a key role in the election campaign of the Bharatiya Janata Party-Telugu Desam Party combine, is now registered with the Election Commission, paving the way for its foray into electoral politics.

'The Election Commission of India has given registration to the 'Janasena Party' as a political party under Section 29A of the Representation of People Act, 1951, with effect from 24.11.2014 vide registration number 56/118/2014/PPS-I dated 28.11.2014,' the party said in a statement.

The EC has set aside the objections received to the party's registration in response to the public notice published in newspapers, treating them as unsustainable, it said.
