Have experienced many ups & downs, the current phase will also pass: HD Revanna

Bengaluru, Aug 14 (SocialNews.XYZ) JD-S MLA HD Revanna, an accused in a kidnapping case linked to a sex video scandal and who has been released on bail, on Wednesday said he has seen many ups and downs in his 25-year political career and the current difficult phase too will pass.

“Some officials say my political career is over. I have seen many ups and downs in 25 years. This phase too will pass. In 1989, the JD-S lost all seven seats in Hassan district. People were saying that Deve Gowda’s political career was over. However, Deve Gowda became Chief Minister and then Prime Minister within four years. There was also a minor setback in 1999,” he said.

Revanna’s son, Prajwal Revanna, is currently in jail in connection with the alleged sex video scandal. His other son Suraj Revanna was jailed in a case of forced unnatural sex and was recently released on bail.

The Congress government has filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking cancellation of the bail of MLA Revanna’s wife Bhavani Revanna.

“I know what the state government has been doing in the district since the Lok Sabha elections. I have a complete picture of the transfer mafia and what is happening in various departments like police, revenue and the Zilla Panchayat,” said Revanna, son of former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda.

He asked the state government not to ‘sabotage’ the development of Hassan district while targeting the Deve Gowda family.

“The future development of the district should not be ruined. Hassan district has seen such development only because of Deve Gowda,” Revanna said.

Revanna said there were recurring landslides in Shiradi Ghat in coastal Karnataka and asked Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari to construct a tunnel as an alternative.

Minister Gadkari has stated that the state government is not cooperating.

“The Congress government should focus on real development without causing harm, irrespective of whether they remain in power for 10 or 15 years,” the minister said.
