Writers and activists from different parts of Karnataka have resolved to hold a protest meet in Hassan on May 30, demanding the arrest of JD(S) leader and MP Prajwal Revanna, facing sexual abuse allegations.
This was decided in a consultative meeting held at Kannada Sahitya Parishat Bhavana in Hassan on Saturday. The meeting was convened under the banner of Karnataka Rajya Janapara Chalavaligala Okkoota. Representatives of women, Dalit, farmers’ and workers’ organisations attended the meeting.
The participants expressed anger over the delay in arresting the accused and demanded that the State government protect the survivors of the alleged sexual abuse.
