Congress made allegations on the Chief Minister and Home Minister of Karnataka by questioning the law and order in the state. The two ministers are from Bharatiya Janta Party. Replying to the attacks made by Congress, Home Minister Araga Jnanendra said, " The rape happened there (Mysuru) but the Congress is trying to rape the Home Minister. They (Congress) are gaining political mileage out of the incident. This is a heinous act and under humanitarian circumstances, they should be demanding early detection of the case. People are watching and they will decide."
