Subject: - Election symbol to Praja Rajyam Party

Dear Sir,

I am an NRI from USA and would like to bring the following for consideration and favorable action.

I am a well wisher of Praja Rajyam Party in Andhra Pradesh, which has more than 50 Lakh registered members and the Party and its President Mr. Chiranjeevi has a huge following in rural areas of the state of Andhra Pradesh. Quite a few of these voters are either illiterate or semi-literate and therefore, rely on the symbol to cast their votes. Lack of a common symbol for the party is bound to confuse voters and deprive them of choosing the leader of their choice. In the absence of allocation of a common symbol, the voters’ ignorance will cause undue advantage for other parties.

Again, the post election scenario of not having a single symbol could also open legal issues and validity of elected member’s association to the party. Therefore, request the CEC to consider this appeal and grant the party with a dedicated single symbol.

Thank You in advance for considering this request.

Sincerely
