Union Minister H D Kumaraswamy challenges Siddaramaiah to approach SC in Janthakal mining case against him
Union Minister H D Kumaraswamy challenged the Karnataka state government to take their legal battle to the Supreme Court instead of involving Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot. The issue stems from a 2007 mining case, where the Lokayukta had sought the governor's permission to prosecute, but Kumaraswamy pointed out that the Supreme Court had barred other courts from passing any orders until a final decision is made. He criticized the state government, suggesting their actions were merely intended to intimidate him and divert attention.
