So it is a 50:50 case. His remarks came as BJP state president BY Vijayendra questioned whether the internal rivalry within Congress and the race for the 2028 chief minister’s post could be behind the ED actions on Jarkiholi and his family.
Bengaluru: PWD minister Satish Jarkiholi Saturday said he knows who complained against him to Enforcement Directorate (ED) and has informed CM DK Shivakumar about the person. I have told the CM who has given it and it’s up to him now,” Jarkiholi said. On whether the complainant was from Congress, Jarkiholi said the person had links with the party but was a BJP voter. It is difficult to say anything,” he said. “There are discussions on whether internal differences in Congress and the fight for the chief minister’s post have led to a conspiracy or a plot,” Vijayendra said, ruling out any BJP role in the ED searches. Vijayendra said there was speculation that people within Congress who had information about Jarkiholi could have passed it to ED and “trapped” him. Jarkiholi said he was prepared to face ED with documents. Let there be an investigation and let the truth come out,” he said. On alleged investments in Rwanda, Jarkiholi said ED officials had questioned him and he had told them that he had made no foreign investments. He said the agency would have to issue a notice and provide documents supporting its allegations before he could respond in detail.
He, however, declined to reveal the identity of the complainant. “I know who gave the complaint. There is nothing wrong in making a complaint; everyone has the right to do so. “That person has a relationship with Congress, but the voter’s party is BJP. He also alleged that the action could be aimed at sidelining Jarkiholi as a potential contender for the CM’s post. “These are only allegations. I have options to prove myself. I will place the facts before ED.
I knew it earlier.
