Acting on a report submitted by the DM and SP of Fatehpur district, the Commission had issued Mulayam Singh Yadav loyalist and minister Prajapati a show cause notice asking why action should not be initiated against him for allegedly planning to influence voters through "corrupt" means including "bribery".
Not satisfactory with his reply, the Commission has now "censured" him and has asked him to be "more careful" in his conduct during polls "failing which more stringent actions shall be taken against you".
The driver of the vehicle had confessed that the sarees were meant to be distributed during elections in Amethi and were to be delivered to him.
