Bollywood
actor
Priyanka
Chopra's
mother
Madhu
Chopra
said
that
their
names
no
longer
be
in
the
voters
list
here,
the
familys
long
association
with
the
town
will
continue.
"Our
connection
with
Bareilly
is
of
the
heart
and
it
will
not
end
with
our
names
being
dropped
from
the
voters
list...
our
house
still
exists
there," Madhu
told
PTI
over
phone
from
Mumbai.
"Bareilly
is
the
karamsthali
of
my
family...
the
entire
family
belonged
to
Bareilly
and
will
always
remain
as
such,"
she
said.
Madhu
said
her
late
husband
Ashok
Chopra
had
written
to
the
district
administration
way
back
in
2012
about
their
shift
to
Mumbai
but
the
names
were
not
dropped
from
the
voters
list
at
that
time.
She
said
Priyanka
often
talks
about
Bareilly
as
she
grew
up
here
and
got
educated
in
the
Army
School.
Priyanka
lived
in
Bareilly
when
she
won
the
Miss
World
crown.
The
family
has
locked
their
house
in
the
Kunwarpur
locality
after
they
shifted
to
Mumbai
17
years
ago.
Though
the
family
had
shifted
to
Mumbai,
their
names
featured
in
the
voters
list
here.
After
it
came
to
light,
the
district
administration
ordered
an
inquiry
and
the
names
were
removed
from
the
voters
list
yesterday.
