BENGALURU: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Tejasvi Surya on Friday said that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah must give free hand to agencies to investigate the Rameshwaram cafe blast incident, adding that State government is repeatedly changing its narrative on the matter.
As many as 10 people have been injured in Bengaluru’s Rameshwaram Cafe blast.
Tejasvi Surya, who represents Bengaluru South constituency in Lok Sabha, questioned the Chief Minister’s Siddaramaiah’s government intentions over the incident.
“At first, they tried the narrative of cylinder blast. Now, they are trying the narrative of business rivalry. Why can’t the Congress Govt allow the investigation agencies to do their job? Why preempt? Why prompt? Vote Bank compulsions? CM Siddaramaiah must give free hand to investigate and give clear answers to people of Bengaluru,” Tejasvi Surya posted on X.
Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar and State Home Minister Dr G Parameshwara along with DGP Alok Mohan also visited the Bengaluru explosion site for inspection.
A team of National Investigation Agency also visited the explosion site in the Whitefield area.
Earlier today, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had said that the accused involved in Bengaluru’s Rameshwaram cafe will be traced and punished, adding that opposition parties should refrain from indulging in politics over the incident.
Addressing reporters in Mysuru, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said, “CCTV footage from the cafe is being examined. It has come to be known that someone had left a bag at the cafe. The accused in the incident will be punished.”
Asserting that “multiple explosions have also taken place in the previous governments,” the Chief Minister said, “This incident has happened in our government. Disciplinary and strict action will be taken against those who involved. Politics should not be done in this matter”. (ANI)
