Official Insulted: HD Kumaraswamy Seeks Immediate Action Against Leader

Tensions escalated in Karnataka after HD Kumaraswamy personally intervened in a case involving the verbal abuse of a commissioner by a Congress member. Kumaraswamy spoke directly with the Chief Secretary, urging him to oversee the filing of charges and the subsequent arrest of the individual involved. ‘No one is above the law,’ Kumaraswamy told reporters, adding that the government must prove it does not shield its own members from criminal accountability. The incident, captured on video and widely shared, has led to public outrage, putting the state government in a difficult position as the opposition ramps up pressure.
