Gowda’s involvement in the sexual harassment case has stirred controversy, complicating matters for the BJP. The incident came to light following a complaint filed by the victim on April 1, triggering a chain of legal actions. Initially, Gowda attempted to evade authorities, but his efforts were thwarted when the police apprehended him in Hiriyur taluk of Chitradurga district.

The unfolding of events has brought scrutiny upon Gowda’s actions, particularly as he had previously embroiled himself into a similar controversy involving Prajwal Revanna.

His arrest raises questions about his conduct and whether additional individuals may be implicated in similar allegations. As the investigation progresses, the public awaits further developments to ascertain the extent of Gowda’s involvement and any potential ramifications on the political landscape.
