On September 1, Karnataka Minister Ramalinga Reddy visited Freedom Park in Bengaluru to meet protesters who were demanding an extension of the deadline for processing notices under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in the state. The protesters, led by actor Prakash Raj, were upset about the high number of deletions during the SIR draft roll and the short time frame for addressing their concerns.
They had given the State Government an hour to send a representative to meet the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Karnataka, threatening to continue their protest if their demands were not met.
Reddy informed the protesters that Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar had sent him on behalf of the State Government to address their concerns. He assured the protesters that the Congress-led government was aware of their issues and promised to discuss them with the Chief Minister, who would then raise the concerns with the CEO. Reddy acknowledged the caution the state government had taken regarding the SIR process, citing the negative outcome of the elections in West Bengal as a reason for their cautious approach.
