Karnataka Chief Minister has credible information on ‘sting operation’: Deputy CM
Congress legislator from Mandya Ganija Ravikumar also defended the Chief Minister’s claim, and said that they had proof on the sting operation
Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister G. Parameshwara has stated that Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar's claim of being the victim of "sting operations" by the Opposition is based on credible information received from the intelligence. The Deputy Chief Minister emphasized that they have not ignored any issue, noting that the drought situation has been handled with utmost seriousness.
When questioned about the allegation of a potential distraction from the drought, Parameshwara maintained that the Chief Minister is fully aware of the situation and has shared relevant information with the Deputy CM. Congress legislator Ganija Ravikumar from Mandya also backed up Shivakumar's claim, asserting that there is proof supporting the alleged sting operation.
Speculations are growing within the party regarding the recent visit of Ministers Yathindra Siddaramaiah and B.Z. Zameer Ahmed Khan to Delhi, where they met with the Central leadership, amidst ongoing discussions within the party about the Chief Minister's claims. Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy ridiculed Shivakumar's claim, labeling it as "a sting against a sting master."
Additionally, BJP State president B.Y. Vijayendra challenged the Chief Minister to reveal the identities behind the alleged sting operation.
