In her complaint, Ms Rai had also alleged that her fake Facebook and Twitter accounts were set up and submitted a list of such fraudulent accounts through which those pictures were circulated.

"I have no hesitation in accepting my relationship with Amrita Rai. She and her husband have already filed a mutual consent divorce case. Once that is decided we would formalize it," the former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh tweeted.

"But I do condemn encroachment in our private life," Mr Singh said.

Mr Singh's wife Asha passed away last year after prolonged illness. He has four daughters and a son from the marriage. Ms Rai, said to be in her early 40s, had also tweeted that she will marry Mr Singh after the divorce with her husband.
