ED notice to Karnataka CM's wife politically motivated: D.K. Shivakumar
Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar has alleged that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) issuing a notice to Karnataka Chief Minister's wife and Minister Byrathi Suresh is politically motivated.
Speaking to the media near his residence in Sadashivanagar on Monday, Shivakumar stated, "This is similar to the case against me. It is not possible for two agencies to investigate the same case simultaneously. The Lokayukta is already investigating the matter. Courts have issued multiple judgments that once the Lokayukta is handling a case, no other agency can investigate it. I will comment further after gathering complete details."

When asked about demands for a CBI investigation into the MUDA case, he said, "In my case too, both the CBI and ED were conducting investigations simultaneously. However, agencies cannot jointly investigate the same case."
Responding to queries regarding ministers' statements about the Chief Minister's position, he clarified, "No one has made any such comments. The government is stable, and we are all working under the Chief Minister’s leadership."

Edited photo of Actor Prakash Raj taking dip at Maha Kumbh Mela goes viral, complaint filed
Bengaluru: Actor Prakash Raj on Tuesday clarified that a photo of him taking a holy dip at the Maha Kumbh Mela, which is doing rounds across social media platforms, was fake. The multilingual actor has filed a police complaint against the miscreants in this regard.
The digitally manipulated image was posted by an account named Prashant Sambaragi, captioned: "Actor Prakash Raj at the Kumbh Mela. He bathed in the Triveni Sangam. Let's hope that his sins are washed away." The image also bizarrely showed the actor’s hand blending into an artificial design, suggesting the use of AI editing.
Taking to ‘X,’ actor Prakash Raj clarified that it was fake news. He stated, "Fake news. The job of the cowardly army of the 'False King' is to spread fake news and defile even their holy worship. A police complaint has been filed. Let's see what they do in the courtroom."
