The sudden flip flop makes one wonder whether the real reason for this trust to surrender the allotted govt land is fear of prosecution: CR Kesavan Mallikarjun Kharge's family's trust returning allocated land to KIADB

"This dramatic U-turn and hasty retreat by the trust linked to Mallikarjun Kharge's immediate family raises very serious suspicion and strong doubts. The sudden flip flop makes one wonder whether the real reason for this trust to surrender the allotted government land is fear of prosecution. Also, a few days back, there was an outburst by Kharge and an attack on the BJP by him. It was a planned attack to divert the attention from real issue of plot allotted to trust linked to Kharge family. When this happened, there was an outrage. There was a conflict of interest. People were asking questions. The governor sought an explanation from Karnataka govt about the allocation of land. Priyank Kharge needs to explain why suddenly they are returning it?" says BJP spokesperson CR Kesavan on Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge's family's trust returning allocated land to KIADB (Karnataka Industrial Areas Development Board).

On Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge returns allotted land amid MUDA scam probe, BJP national spokesperson, Pradeep Bhandari says, "Mallikarjun Kharge has admitted that he abused his official position to provide alleged benefits to his family members.
