Actor Prakash Raj cast his vote in the Karnataka assembly election on Wednesday. 

Actor Prakash Raj on Wednesday cast his vote for the Karnataka assembly election and said it is time to vote against “communal politics” in the state. The actor cast his vote early in the morning in Bengaluru.

Polling for the Karnataka Assembly elections is underway, while the counting of votes will be on Saturday. The state has a total of 5.3 crore (5,30,85,566) voters who will cast their votes at 58,545 polling stations.

In an interview to ANI, Prakash Raj said people of Karnataka need to ensure that the state is “beautiful” and hence must cast their votes accordingly.

“We’ve to vote against communal politics. This is a place where you have the right to decide. Because in elections, in politics, it is the ruling party that is accountable. You know when, what you have to do, what you have suffered and what you have done. We need Karnataka to be beautiful,” he was quoted as saying.

The BJP is in a fierce electoral battle with the Congress to retain power in the state where Janata Dal (Secular) is also in the fray. On the work front, Prakash Raj has had a packed year featuring in films like Varisu, Samantha Prabhu starrer Shaakuntalam and the recently released Mani Ratnam epic Ponniyin Selvan: II, in which he played Sundara Chola.
