BJP requests Karnataka governor's intervention in MLC CT Ravi's arrest

The BJP has requested Karnataka's Governor to intervene in the arrest of MLC CT Ravi, claiming it is politically motivated. They accused the Congress government of misusing state power to suppress dissent and undermine democracy. BJP leaders are calling for a fact-finding committee, led by a former judge, to investigate the circumstances of Ravi's arrest. They argue that the arrest deviated from legal norms and was intended to silence opposition. In response, Karnataka's Minister G Parameshwara announced a CID inquiry into the incident, urging that the investigation proceed without interference. Ravi, who was arrested following allegations of derogatory remarks, has raised concerns about his safety and the government's actions.
