Bengaluru: Former minister M.P. Renukacharya has cautioned that he is prepared to file a defamation suit against Byrathi Suresh for his allegedly derogatory remarks about women.
Renukacharya criticised Byrathi Suresh for his irresponsible statements, pointing out that he has a habit of making allegations about women’s character whenever he faces accusations. “It is unacceptable to speak about the character of those in public life,” he stated. He further questioned the appropriateness of commenting on the late Maitradevi, wife of former Chief Minister Yediyurappa, many years after her passing.
“I strongly condemn the irresponsible comments made about Maitradevi and Shobha Karandlaje. We will file a defamation suit against this,” Renukacharya asserted.
He further added that it is wrong to speak ill of others’ personal lives and urged an end to the disparagement of women. Renukacharya accused Byrathi Suresh of making such statements to divert attention from the MUDA scam.
