Bengaluru: Disciplinary action will be initiated against Mandya MP L.R. Shivaramegowda for his casteist remarks against Sumalatha Ambarish, said JD(S) State President A.H. Vishwanath. Speaking at a media interaction yesterday, he said criticising Sumalatha only for political reasons was not fair and was against the interests of democracy.
“Shivaramegowda has spoilt the image of Mandya. There are members of all communities in Mandya. He is an MP and shouldn’t make such remarks. The party has taken his remarks seriously and will initiate disciplinary action against him,” he said.
