As per the information, Bunty, who is contesting Lok Sabha elections against Kamal Nath's son Nakul Nath from Chhindwara, has alleged that ex-CM's right hand R. K. Mrignali has given money to some journalists to create fake videos to defame him.

In his complaint, Sahu has alleged that Mrignali has given Rs 20 lakh to some independent journalists to make fake videos against him and spread them on social media platforms.

Police, however, did not say anything on this matter.

The development came as senior BJP leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah is set to arrive in Chhindwara on Monday.
