Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State president K. Surendran, who appeared before the District Crime Branch, was questioned in the Manjeswaram election bribery case on Thursday.
The BJP leader appeared before District Crime Branch DySP Satish Kumar at Kasaragod Guest House by 10 a.m.
The case was registered by the Badiaduka police based on a complaint that BSP candidate K. Sundara had been bribed and threatened to withdraw his candidature from Manjeswaram in the last Assembly polls. The case was later handed over to the Crime Branch. Mr. Surendran is currently the only accused in the case.
Senior BJP leader and former Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Saturday (November 23, 2024) said the landslide victory of the Mahayuti alliance in the Maharashtra Assembly election was historic, and that it reflected people’s mindset across the country. She added that the DMK would be unseated from power in the 2026 Assembly election in Tamil Nadu and that the BJP would be the reason for it.
