The Congress Party has named Gulab Singh Kerar as the party's star campaigner for Madhya Pradesh in the Lok Sabha elections. Kerar is allegedly an accused in the Vypam scam.
The grand-old party on Tuesday submitted to the Election Commission of India (ECI) a list of star campaigners for the Lok Sabha polls to be conducted in Madhya Pradesh on May 12.
The Vyapam scam involved 13 different exams conducted by Vyapam, for selection of medical students and state government employees (including food inspectors, transport constables, police personnel, school teachers, dairy supply officers, and forest guards). The exams were taken by around 3.2 million students.
