Arvind Limbavali says CM Official and Congress leaders behind releasing his 'morphed' video
Bengaluru: Senior Karnataka BJP leader Arvind Limbawali on Saturday responded to the obscene video involving him, which has gone viral on social media sites.
Arvind took to his Facebook page to release a video wherein he added that the video was doctored and was a part of conspiracy against him by the coalition government.
“It is a conspiracy against me, the coalition leaders are trying to save their government using the video. They are trying to sustain their legislators by luring them of money, on the other hand they are using such doctored materials to establish wrong image of the opposition leaders. They have tried similar measures when the government was unstable and they are trying the same thing again” he said.
“The morphing of the video is clearly intended to damage my political image. The CM and Congress leaders are involved in this conspiracy” he said while also adding that he would initiate action against those who promote the video on social media.
In another video Chethan, who is seen getting intimate with the Arvind in the video that has gone viral is seen saying that “The viral video on social media of me and Arvind Limbavali is fake and morphed. The video is aimed to end his political career. I have filed a complaint with police in this regard already”.
