Hassan: PWD minister H D Revanna on Thursday expressed his anger and said that IT department is a slave to Modi Prime Minister Modi’s and BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa and threatened to hold a protest against these raids.
Revanna’s comment comes few hours after IT department officials raided the houses of Minor Irrigation Minister C S Puttaraju and his nephew.
Addressing presspersons here he said that the BJP leaders are unaware of the capacity of former prime minister H D Deve Gowda.
He further threatened that if this continues they will hold a protest against these raids and the people conducting these raids.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy tweeted that “PM @narendramodi’s real surgical strike is out in the open through IT dept raids. The constitutional post offer for IT officer Balakrishna helped the PM in his revenge game. Highly deplorable to use govt machinery, corrupt officials to harass opponents during election time. (sic)”
