"...Kondal Reddy is roaming around with a fake pass and speaking with the Returning Officer.
He is roaming around with 20 people. He went to three polling stations with them in three vehicles but the Police didn't tell them anything...They are indulging in hooliganism after coming here," the BRS worker said.
