Itanagar: Arunchal Pradesh lawmaker Nyamar Karbak has lodged a complaint at Itanagar police station here alleging circulation of a fake document in the social media in his name, police said on Monday.
Karbak is the BJP MLA from Liromoba assembly seat in West Siang district of Arunachal Pradesh.
The alleged bogus document which is in the social media, particularly WhatsApp, claims that Karbak has declared his support to the opposition party.
In a complaint to the officer in-charge of Itanagar police station on Sunday, Karbak alleged that a fake document with his forged signature is being circulated in the social media since January 26.
It contained “defamatory and untrue facts” which might create political differences between him, his political party – the BJP and his superiors, the complaint said.
“The document is totally unknown to me and it seems that some person(s) with vested interest are intentionally trying to tarnish my political image and create confusion in the minds of the people,” he said in the complaint. (PTI)
