Prajwal Revanna case | Karnataka Rashtra Samiti party demands court-monitored investigation

Karnataka Rashtra Samiti party workers staged a protest in Hassan on Monday, May 13, demanding a court-monitored probe in the Prajwal Revanna case. JD(S) leader and MP Prajwal Revanna has been accused of raping and sexually harassing many women.

Under the leadership of the party’s State vice-president, S.H. Linge Gowda, party workers took out the Hassan Chalo march. Many workers from different parts of the State staged a dharna, took out a protest march, and submitted a memorandum to Deputy Commissioner C. Sathyabhama.

Mr. Linge Gowda, addressing the protesters, said that Prajwal Revanna was given an opportunity to contest in the Lok Sabha polls just because he was the grandson of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda. “What was his contribution to society before contesting the elections? The political party is also responsible for the charges he is facing now,” he said.
