Bengaluru: Karnataka BJP General Secretary and Minister in newly formed cabinet of CM Yediyurappa on Wednesday criticised former Union Home Minister and Finance Minister P Chidambaram after his arrest adding that he was hiding in his house in New Delhi to gain sympathy, evading arrest by CBI and ED.
Ravi in a tweet also called Chidambaram ‘Crook who as Union Home Minister coined “Hindu Terror”.
“This Crook who as Union Home Minister coined "Hindu Terror" is holed up like a Petty Thief” Ravi wrote in the tweet.
“In a scene straight out from a movie, @INCIndia leader @PChidambaram_IN is creating a scene to gain sympathy by hiding in his house in New Delhi” he added while also writing ‘What goes around comes around’ in the tweet.
Twitterati however did not take the tweet lightly and schooled the new minister for posting the tweet. A few of the users stressed Ravi to concentrate on his role as the minister of the state and not indulge in such controversies, while others recalled hit and run accident case involving his car to remind him of his cases that are still pending.
One of the users called Ravi as ‘Crook’ adding that he was a cabinet minister behaving like BJP’s IT Cell troll.
Another user commented “Sir, Do you need this tweet? Is it part of your job description? Is it not the job of BJP high command? Please stay away from unnecessary national issues. Concentrate on your district and your ministry work. Thousands are in relief centres of Mudigere. Solve their problems”.
Here are the few replies of the twitterati on Ravi’s tweet:

You are a minister now. Avoid bad mouthing the opposition. There are spokespersons who will talk about these things. Please concentrate on your work.

Shillong (PTI): A court in Meghalaya on Tuesday granted bail to Indore resident Sonam Raghuvanshi, who allegedly got her husband killed during their honeymoon in the northeastern state in 2025.
Sonam’s husband, Raja Raghuvanshi, went missing on May 23 last year during the couple’s honeymoon, and his mutilated body was found on June 2 from a deep gorge near a waterfall in Sohra area of East Khasi Hills district. Sonam and several others, including her alleged boyfriend, were arrested in the case.
"The accused has been granted bail by the court. However, necessary legal procedures are being followed and the police will continue to pursue the matter as per law," SP Vivek Syiem told PTI.
According to police, Indore-based transport businessman Raja Raghuvanshi married Sonam on May 11, 2025, in Indore, and the couple left for their honeymoon in Meghalaya on May 20.
The autopsy report of Raja Raghuvanshi indicated that he was hit twice with a sharp object on his head.
Sonam surrendered on June 8 before the police in Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur district.
In September last year, the Meghalaya Police submitted a 790-page charge sheet, naming eight people, including his wife Sonam and her alleged boyfriend, as the accused.
