The Mics Were Hot: Congress Gossip Session In Karnataka Is, Well, Awkward | Read
A video of two Karnataka Congress leaders discussing alleged corruption by DK Shivakumar, chief of the state unit, and his associates was tweeted Wednesday by the BJP's Amit Malviya, landing the party in yet more controversy as it tries to prep for a spate of key Assembly elections next year. Former MP VS Ugrappa and media coordinator MA Salim were caught on camera speaking to each before a press conference; the conversation referenced "adjustments (from six-eight per cent to 12 per cent)" by Mr Shivakumar and to an aide of his who "made around 50-100 crores".
