Allegations Fly as BJP Leader Claims Minister's Name in Contractor's Suicide Note

BJP leader Chalavadi Narayanaswamy accused Minister Priyank Kharge of being named in contractor Sachin Panchal's suicide note, while Chief Minister Siddaramaiah defended Kharge due to lack of evidence. The BJP demands a CBI probe and alleges political motives, emphasizing threats to Panchal's family.

BJP leader Chalavadi Narayanaswamy alleged on Wednesday that Minister Priyank Kharge's name appears in contractor Sachin Panchal's suicide note, a claim dismissed by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah citing insufficient evidence.

Narayanaswamy, the Opposition Leader in Karnataka's Legislative Council, claims Kharge's name is mentioned thrice in the document, contradicting the Chief Minister's statements.

The situation raises concerns about threats to Panchal's family and potential political ramifications, prompting the BJP to demand a CBI investigation into the case.
