Priyank Kharge accuses BJP of conspiring to send Prajwal Revanna abroad
Bengaluru: Minister Priyank Kharge has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of orchestrating a plot to send Janata Dal (Secular) MP Prajwal Revanna abroad in connection with a recent sex scandal. Addressing reporters on Friday, Kharge criticized the BJP's handling of the situation and the focus on the leak rather than the incident itself.
Kharge stated, "Instead of discussing the whereabouts of the person involved, the focus has shifted to who leaked the video. Moreover, JDS leaders are only discussing the irrelevant issues."
He further alleged that BJP has been involved in a conspiracy to send Revanna abroad, even before the filing of the FIR. "It is known that Home Minister Amit Shah has said Prajwal should not be given a ticket in the Lok Sabha elections. This plot to send him abroad was orchestrated by the BJP. Devaraj Gowda has confirmed that the BJP was aware of all this," Kharge said.
