The Karnataka High Court on Friday disqualified MP Prajwal Revanna from Hassan Lok Sabha constituency for submitting false information in the election affidavit during the last parliamentary elections 2019.
The Karnataka High court was hearing a petition filed against Revanna in connection with the submission of fake documents during the nomination process for the 2019 polls. Shivananda, appearing on behalf of the petition said, “He has been disqualified based on corrupt practices. He suppressed his income amounting to over 24 crore while filing the affidavit during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.”
In 2019, a petition was filed against JDS’ only MP Prajwal Revanna, MP from Hassan Lok Sabha constituency, in the High Court for giving false information in the property declaration details and affidavit given during the election.
Prajwal Revanna, who contested as an alliance candidate from Hassan Lok Sabha constituency, won in his first attempt. But they have given false information in the affidavit and are trying to mislead people. BJP candidate Arakalagudu Manju, who lost in Hassan, had filed a petition in the High Court on June 26, 2019, demanding that Prajwal’s MP seat should be cancelled.
