Mysore/Mysuru: Amidst escalating political tensions surrounding the sex scandal and controversial dissemination of compromising videos, JD(S) Core Committee Chairman and MLA G.T. Devegowda (GTD), along with former Minister S.R. Mahesh, have called for resignation of Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar (DKS), alleging his involvement in mass distribution of the pen drives and tarnishing the reputation of women.
“Either CM Siddaramaiah must dismiss DKS from the Cabinet or Shivakumar must step down. We demand a judicial inquiry led by a sitting High Court (HC) Judge, as we lack confidence in Special Investigation Team (SIT) established by the Siddaramaiah Government. We believe and all the shreds of evidence establish the fact that the SIT is influenced by the CM and his deputy,” the leaders said at a press conference at a private hotel in city this morning.
