A Manju moves HC seeking disqualification of Prajwal Revanna
Bengaluru: Hassan Lok Sabha constituency unsuccessful candidate A Manju on Wednesday moved to the Karnataka High Court seeking disqualification of Prajwal Revanna from the MP position alleging him of misleading the people by giving wrong information in the affidavit filed during the Lok Sabha elections.
Though he has amassed wealth disproportionate to his known sources of income, he has given wrong information. He has declared more assets than the actual income. He has shares in many companies, which he did not mention in the affidavit. He has also not disclosed his loan transaction with the former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda. He has misled both, the people and the Election Commission, by giving wrong information. Therefore, he should be disqualified from the position, he demanded. However, this application is yet to come for the hearing in the High Court.
