**Union Minister Demands NIA Probe into Alleged Pro-Pakistan Slogan Incident at Vidhana Soudha**
MANGALURU – On Wednesday, Union Minister of State for Agriculture, Farmers’ Welfare, and Food Processing Industries, Shobha Karandlaje, called for an investigation by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) into an alleged incident of pro-Pakistan slogan raising in the corridors of the Vidhana Soudha in Bengaluru. The Minister expressed concern over the security breach at the Vidhana Soudha during the Rajya Sabha elections, emphasizing the need for restricted entry without passes.
During a press conference in Udupi, Minister Karandlaje urged the interrogation of Rajya Sabha member Syed Nasser Hussain and stated her intention to write a letter to the Union Home Minister to request an NIA investigation. She criticized the Congress party, accusing them of attempting to divide the nation.
Furthermore, she criticized Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for allowing unrestricted access to the Vidhana Soudha corridors in an attempt to appease certain sections of the population. Minister Karandlaje emphasized that the truth would be revealed through a thorough NIA probe into the pro-Pakistan sloganeering incident.
In another development, Minister Karandlaje unveiled the Bharath rice, priced at ₹29 per kg, near the Adi Udupi Market area. This initiative aims to provide high-quality rice to consumers while supporting local farmers.
