DK Shivakumar Slapped Maniyar

However, DK Shivakumar got furious as Maniyar put his hand on his shoulder. DK Shivakumar moved a bit and slapped Alauddin Maniyar from behind. Following this, the security personnel and supporters of DK Shivakumar pushed him away. The incident has provided the BJP with an opportunity to target the Congress party amid the ongoing Pratap Revanna case in Karnataka.

BJP IT Cell Chief Amit Malviya took to his official X account and said, “Karnataka’s DCM, DK Shivakumar, slaps Congress Municipal Member Allauddin Maniar, while campaigning in Savanur town of Haveri. This is not the first time DK has assaulted a Congress worker. His crime? He happened to put his hands on DK Shivakumar’s shoulder, when the latter stepped out of the car.”

He further said, “I wonder why do Congress workers even want to work for the Congress? Their leaders slap them, humiliate them, don’t give them tickets to contest (all of them are cornered by family members)… Is it for the corruption money they make on the side? No self respect?”
