Senior Congress leader and MLC B.K. Hariprasad has been issued a show-cause notice by the party for publicly criticising Chief Minister Siddaramaiah at a conference of backward classes communities in Bengaluru on Saturday.
Congress Disciplinary Action Committee has served the show-cause notice asking him to explain his conduct within 10 days.
Mr. Siddaramaiah had apparently brought to the central leaders’ notice Mr. Hariprasad’s repeated public criticism of him and sought action against the leader, who belongs to the Idiga community (OBC) and has been unhappy over not being inducted into the Cabinet.
