Congress refutes HDK's claim that Siddaramaiah was removed from office via 'sting operation'

Congress refuted the claim by Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy that former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah was removed from office through a 'sting operation'. Ramesh Babu, President of the KPCI Media and Communication Division, stated that Kumaraswamy's statement is baseless and politically motivated, aimed at creating discord within the Congress. He added that Siddaramaiah's political stature and public support do not depend on any 'secret operation' or conspiracy. Babu also referenced previous controversies involving Kumaraswamy regarding audio recordings, phone confiscations, and sting operations.
