Bengaluru (Karnataka): Actor-turned-politician Prakash Raj, who is contesting from Bengaluru Central constituency as an independent candidate, on Tuesday said that he was contesting the elections on behalf of the people and not against any political party or a leader.

"I'm not fighting against anyone. I am fighting for the people. It's we who are the majority. In a democracy, if you choose the right leader, people win, if you choose the wrong leader, people lose," he said.
