BILASPUR: Former Chhattisgarh chief minister Ajit Jogi's son Amit Jogi was arrested on Tuesday in the state's Bilaspur district on charges of cheating and forgery in connection with a declaration in a poll affidavit submitted by him in 2013, police said.
He was later produced before a local court which sent him in judicial remand for 14 days.
Ajit Jogi, the founder of the Janata Congress Chhattisgarh (J), dubbed the action as "political vendetta" and claimed his son was being framed on false charges.
Amit Jogi, who now heads the Janata Congress Chhattisgarh (J), was arrested from his home following a police complaint lodged against him by Sameera Paikra, the BJP candidate from Marwahi seat in the 2013 state Assembly polls, Bilaspur Superintendent of Police Prashant Agrawal told PTI.
Paikra lodged the FIR against him in February this year at Gaurela police station here, alleging that he submitted wrong information about his birthplace in the affidavit while filing his nomination papers for the 2013 state polls, he said.
