Karnataka suicide | Surjewala, Shivakumar, Siddaramaiah arrested after protest against Eshwarappa

India Today  

Congress leaders Randeep Surjewala, DK Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah and other party workers were arrested on Thursday, April 14, for staging a protest, demanding the removal of KS Eshwarappa from the Karnataka government. Rural Development and Panchayati Raj minister KS Eshwarappa has been accused of corruption that allegedly led to the suicide of civil contractor Santosh Patil. A few weeks ago, Patil wrote a letter addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in which he alleged that Eshwarappa had not cleared outstanding bills due to him. Congress leader Nasir Hussain said that the party would approach the President of India if the Karnataka Government, PM Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah did not take steps to sack and arrest Eshwarappa.
