Bengaluru, June 26, 2025 (ANI): Speaking on FIR registered against the Karnataka BJP over its 'X' post on Indira Gandhi, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on June 26 said that they are just discussing it for publicity. “I think there is a problem with the BJP. The whole country gave a mandate to Indira Gandhi after the Emergency was declared. She ruled the country in 1980. Janata Dal or any other family could not bring back their government. She sacrificed her life for this country. Now, for publicity, they are just discussing that... This is a closed matter...,” said DK Shivakumar.
