The JD(S) continued its protest against the alleged efforts of the Congress government in the State to “tarnish” the image of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda’s family under the pretext of an investigation into the sexual harassment case against Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna by holding a demonstration in Maddur on Sunday.
The party workers gathered at T.B. Circle in Maddur on Sunday under the leadership of former Minister D.C. Thamanna and condemned the Congress party for the “cunning” politics it is playing to “tarnish” the reputation of Mr. Gowda’s family and thereby making public explicit videos of a large number of women, who were victims of sexual abuse.
The protestors held aloft banners demanding a CBI probe into the matter and shouted slogans against Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar. The protestors alleged that Congress leaders had played a role in the distribution of thousands of pen drives containing the explicit vidoes.
