BJP has approached authorities to register an FIR against Karnataka Chief Minister DK Shivakumar and other ministers, alleging they staged a dharna at the Election Commission of India office.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has demanded that police register a first information report (FIR) against Karnataka Chief Minister DK Shivakumar and several other ministers from the state government. The demand stems from an alleged protest, described as a dharna, that the ministers reportedly staged at the office of the Election Commission of India.
According to the BJP, the dharna was conducted without proper permission and constitutes a violation of legal protocols. The party has urged the concerned authorities to take immediate legal action against the accused ministers for their conduct at the EC office.
As of now, no further details such as the exact date of the incident, the number of ministers involved, or any official response from the Election Commission or police have been disclosed in the available report.
