Belagavi: Former speaker, Congress MLA Ramesh Kumar reportedly gave a shocking statement to the media and said, “I died four days ago”. 

When he was asked about the Belagavi Chalo initiative of the Karave Activists and the vandalism perpetrated by the MES activists, the MLA refused to answer to the media near the Suvarna Soudha saying, “I died four days ago, ask about this to a living person”, and folded both his hands before the press and went to the Vidhana Sabha. 

In the recent assembly session, after condemning the half-hearted agreement to discussions on the farmer’s issues, Ramesh Kumar had said, “When rape is inevitable, one must enjoy” creating severe controversy in the public sphere.
