A day after the arrest of Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) Amrit Paul in the police sub-inspectors (PSI) recruitment scam, the opposition Congress demanded the resignation of Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai for allegedly making attempts to protect some politicians and officials involved in the alleged scam.
The Congress also demanded immediate sacking of Home Minister Araga Jnanendra who allegedly misled the government and the public by denying the scam or irregularities in the recruitment scam in the State legislature in March 2022.
While Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah said Mr. Bommai has ‘no moral authority to continue’ as CM, KPCC president D K Shivakumar said Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot should take the initiative to dismiss the government for allegedly attempting to hush up the multi-crore PSI scam.
