Karnataka BJP women’s wing starts protest against KC Venugopal,demands resignation

Karnataka BJP is sharpening its attack on the Congress before the Assembly elections . BJP women’s wing has turned its ire on KC Venugopal, AICC Karnataka-in-charge and Alappuzha MP.

Led by its Udupi MP Shobha Karandlaje, workers of the women wing of the party assembled in central Bengaluru near Anand Rao circle on Monday seeking KC Venugopal’s resignation.

Calling KC Venugopal a “rapist” Shobha demanded that Venugopal be immediately sacked by the Congress. The senior Congress leader was accused of rape and sexual assault by Kerala solar scam co-accused Saritha Nair.

A judicial commission that had probed the solar scam had found Saritha’s allegations of sexual assault against many political leaders including KC Venugopal prima facie true and has asked the government to file FIRs in these cases.

The Alappuzha MP along with many colleagues including former Kerala CM Oommen Chandy will be probed for allegedly sexually assaulting Saritha Nair.

“I request Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi to take KC Venugopal back. Sexual asaulter and corrupt  Venugopal is not needed in Karnataka. This is our demand,” the MP from Udupi said.
