No political clearance sought or given: MEA on Prajwal Revanna

Hindustan Times  

The Ministry of External Affairs said on Thursday that “no political clearance” was sought from it or issued by it, with this being its first reaction on Prajwal Revanna, the Member of Parliament from Karnataka's Hassan, who is embroiled in an alleged sex scandal. A Karnataka Police SIT is probing sex charges against Prajwal Revanna Prajwal is the grandson of former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda, who heads the Janata Dal. The ministry's statement comes on a day when a Special Investigation Team set up by the Karnataka government, rejected his request seeking seven more days to appear before it for questioning. The controversy surrounding the now-suspended JD leader comes at a time when Lok Sabha elections are underway; of the 28 parliamentary seats in the southern state, as many as 14, including Hassan, voted in the second of the seven-phase nationwide polling, while the remaining 14 will vote in the third phase on May 7.
