The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has called for the removal of Karnataka‘s Urban Development Minister and Hebbal MLA, Suresha B S, also known as Byrathi Suresh, from the state assembly. This demand follows the apprehension of his alleged associates for their involvement in forging Aadhaar, voter ID, PAN cards, and driver’s licenses.
In a formal complaint submitted to the Election Commission of India, the BJP’s Karnataka unit has urged for a thorough investigation by either the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) or the National Investigation Agency (NIA). The party asserts that the actions of the three individuals arrested by the police pose a significant threat to national security.
A delegation led by S Suresh Kumar, BJP MLA representing Rajaji Nagar and a former minister, presented their complaint at the Chief Electoral Officer’s office. The complaint details that an FIR has been registered against Mounesh Kumar, Bhagat, and Raghavendra. These individuals were allegedly involved in the production of counterfeit Aadhaar Cards, Voter IDs, driving licenses, PAN Cards, and other documents at their business establishment, MSL Techno Solutions in RT Nagar.
The BJP leadership emphasized that the production of fake Aadhaar cards is a grave offense with implications for national security. It allows illegal immigrants and non-residents to fraudulently acquire citizenship, placing a substantial burden on government resources, as social welfare programs meant for native, impoverished citizens are wrongly allocated to these immigrants.
The BJP accused local politicians, including the MLA from the Congress party representing the Hebbal constituency, of being involved in this extensive fraud. They asserted that such politicians provide political protection to illegal immigrants by exploiting the Aadhaar scheme, potentially for the purpose of creating voter blocks among minority communities.
The BJP insisted that individuals who offer political protection to illegal immigrants should be regarded as threats to national security. The party contended that in their quest for power, these individuals are manipulating the Aadhaar system to build support among minority groups.
The party has called for immediate legal action, including the filing of a criminal breach of trust case against the MLA and his associates. Given the significance of this issue in terms of national sovereignty and security, the BJP has recommended that the case be handed over to the NIA or CBI to ensure that the culprits are held accountable.
The BJP has demanded a thorough investigation into this incident, treating it as a crime against the sovereignty, integrity, and security of India. They argue that all those involved, including the MLA who has breached the trust of his office, must face legal consequences.
In light of the circumstances outlined above, the BJP has formally requested that the authorities initiate an appropriate investigation by CBI or other central agencies and take legal action against the accused and their close associates connected to Sri Byrathi Suresh (MLA Hebbal). Additionally, the party has called for Byrathi Suresh’s disqualification from the Karnataka Legislative Assembly.
