Pralhad Joshi's brother absconding, investigation in fraud case continues: G. Parameshwara
Bengaluru: A fraud case has been lodged against Union Minister Prahlad Joshi's brother, Gopal Joshi, who is currently absconding. Home Minister G. Parameshwara confirmed that the investigation is ongoing, and three people have already been arrested in connection with the case.
Speaking to reporters near his residence in Sadashivanagar, Parameshwara said, "When a complaint is filed, it must be taken seriously. Gopal Joshi is absconding, and the police are continuing their investigation as per the law."
He further clarified that he is not aware of any direct involvement of Pralhad Joshi in the matter. "It is too early to comment on his role. Once the arrested individuals are questioned and their statements recorded, we will have clarity. Until the investigation progresses and reports are submitted, it wouldn't be appropriate to make any assumptions," Parameshwara added.
On a different note, the Home Minister also responded to questions about the caste census. He said, "I am unaware of why Congress MLA Shamanur Shivashankarappa met Yediyurappa and Basavaraj Bommai. The government has spent ₹160 crore on the caste census, and after spending such a large sum, people have the right to know the results. The Chief Minister has assured that the report detailing the population of different communities will be presented to the cabinet. Not everyone will agree 100% on any issue; there will always be opposing views," he remarked.
