BELAGAVI (KARNATAKA): The Congress government in Karnataka will provide financial assistance to those allegedly sexually assaulted by JD(S) leader Prajwal Revanna, said Congress’ Karnataka in-charge Randeep Singh Surjewala.
Surjewala, who is also the Congress general secretary, made this announcement in the presence of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah at a press meet here on Sunday.
“Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has announced financial assistance to the rape victims, who are in the hundreds, since it is a unique case that has never happened in the last 75 years,” Surjewala said.
