This came after the Karnataka government decided to withdraw a criminal case registered against a group of people, who had attacked the policemen with stones in Hubballi town on April 16, 2022.
“I am absolutely flabbergasted. This is nothing but the politics of appeasement. There were extremely serious allegations. There was an attack on a police station. Over 158 people were involved in this case of serious rioting,” BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj told a press conference at the party headquarters here when asked for comment.
The police personnel had suffered injuries in the incident, she said and asked if the Congress government in Karnataka cannot protect the “protectors of the country”, how will it protect democracy.
