Priyank Kharge alleges central agency pressure over KPSC case

Karnataka Home Minister Priyank Kharge alleged that a Union Minister is pressuring the Centre to use the ED and Income Tax Department against him and his Cabinet colleagues.

The allegations relate to an ongoing investigation into recruitment irregularities within the Karnataka Public Service Commission.

The claims follow a Central Crime Branch probe into a fabricated sting video targeting former chief minister Siddaramaiah, which investigators linked to the Delhi residence of Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy.
