Case filed against Mangaluru BJP MLA Dr. Bharath Shetty for derogatory remarks on Rahul Gandhi
Mangaluru: Kavoor Police have registered a case against BJP MLA Dr. Y Bharath Shetty following a complaint by Congress activist Anil Kumar from Urundadigudda, Panjimogaru. The complaint accuses Dr. Shetty of making derogatory remarks about Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition (LOP) Rahul Gandhi and delivering a provocative speech.
The incident occurred on Monday during a protest meeting organized by the BJP at Kavoor Junction. During the address, Dr. Shetty allegedly stated that Rahul Gandhi should not only be expelled from Parliament but also physically slapped as punishment for his "anti-Hindu statements," according to the complaint lodged by Anil Kumar.

The complaint also mentions that Mangaluru South MLA Vedvyas Kamath and Dakshina Kannada MP Brijesh Chowta were present at the protest and made similarly provocative statements in response to recent comments made by the LOP in Parliament.
Following these events, Anil Kumar filed a complaint with Kavoor Police, prompting them to register a case and commence an investigation. Senior Congress leaders, including former minister B Ramanath Rai, Abhayachandra Jain, and MLC Ivan D’Souza, have called on the police to file a suo motu case against Dr. Shetty for his remarks against Rahul Gandhi.
The investigation is ongoing as authorities examine the statements made during the protest and determine any potential legal repercussions.
