Hassan sex scandal case: MP Prajwal Revanna expelled from JD(S)
Bengaluru: JD(S) Parliamentarian from Hassan and grandson of party Supremo HD Deve Gowda, Prajwal Revanna, who is facing charges of involvement in the sex scandal of Hassan, was expelled from the party on Monday.
Obscene video clips, with women allegedly being sexually assaulted, had been found shared in Hassan district and Pajwal was facing allegations of being involved in the sex scandal.
HD Kumaraswamy, the State President of the JD(S), who publicly declared that Prajwal was expelled from the party, told reporters in Shivamogga that Prajwal should face legal action if he was found guilty in the case. He also asked the media not to link either the party's ally BJP or Kumaraswamy himself to the case.
The JD(S) has taken a firm step as the case, especially accusations against Prajwal, was intensifying. Not only rival parties like the Congress but also members in the party had started demanding that the JD(S) leaders take action against the Hassan MP. Analysts opined that the case would prove a setback to the BJP-JD(S) alliance in Karnataka in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections. Party chief Deve Gowda reportedly decided to expel his grandson from the party, to prevent the possibility of further damage to either the party or the alliance.
