Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has claimed that former prime minister HD Deve Gowda helped his grandson Janata Dal Secular MP Prajwal Revanna flee to Germany last month amid allegations of sexual assault. "I think Deve Gowda himself sent Prajwal. The letter now written by him is only for public consumption," he said, taking a swipe at a public letter shared by the former PM on Thursday, warning his grandson to surrender or face the "anger of the family."
