Former Karnataka Minister and BJP MLC CT Ravi
Chikkamagaluru: Former Karnataka Minister and BJP MLC CT Ravi has accused the state Congress government of selective justice and threatened to launch a “Belagavi Chalo” movement if no action is taken against those who allegedly attempted to assassinate him.
Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Ravi alleged that the state government, led by Congress, operates on the “Hammurabi doctrine” rather than adhering to the Constitution. He criticized the swift police response to a complaint filed against him by Minister Lakshmi Hebbalkar while claiming inaction on his own complaint regarding an alleged assassination attempt.
“Does the CM believe I don’t have the right to seek justice under the law? Should I also send goons to get justice?” Ravi questioned. He demanded a judicial investigation into the incident to uncover the truth.
Ravi alleged that he was detained and taken to “mysterious places” by Karnataka State Police, who acted on instructions from undisclosed sources. “I told them to record the calls they received during this operation,” he added.
He stated his intent to pursue legal recourse, file complaints with the Human Rights Commission, and ensure those involved in the alleged murder attempt are held accountable. “An FIR has not been filed yet on my complaint. If action isn’t taken, we will launch the Belagavi Chalo movement,” Ravi warned.
