The BJP has formed a State-level team of advocates to look into alleged violation of freedom of expression by the Congress government in Karnataka.
On September 3, MLC and BJP State secretary Keshav Prasad accused the Congress government of targeting people who are active on social media and mediapersons by filing cases against them. He alleged instances of the Congress filing cases against such individuals.
The team of lawyers constituted by the BJP would not only take stock of the issue, but also suggest ways and means of fighting this trend.
