Navneet Kaur Rana, First-Time MP From Maharashtra, Is Fined By Bombay High Court For Fake Caste Certificate

Independent MP from Maharashtra, Navneet Kaur Rana, was on June 8 fined Rs 2 lakh by the Bombay High Court for submitting a fake caste certificate. The first-time Member of Parliament from Amravati, the second largest city in Vidarbha region of Maharashtra, now faces the prospect of losing her seat. The court said that “all the consequences in law provided upon cancellation of such a fraudulently obtained certificate shall follow.” With the order, the Member of Parliament, who got elected in the 2019 general elections as an independent candidate, may have to lose the seat which was reserved for a candidate from a Scheduled Caste. Navneet Rana Kaur said she will approach the Supreme Court & is confident that she will get justice. Navneet Kaur Rana, 35, speaks seven languages & is among the eight women lawmakers from Maharashtra. The actor-turned-politician's candidature was challenged by a former MP and Shiv Sena leader Anandrao Adsul. Watch the video to know more.
