Defamation Case: K’taka Court Grants Bail To CM Siddaramaiah, Deputy CM Shivakumar

The Bengaluru court on Saturday has granted bail to Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and his deputy DK Shivakumar in relation with a defamation case filed against them by the BJP.

The saffron party accused the Congress leaders of putting false advertisements against its party leaders, including the then Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.

WHAT’S IN THE CASE?

Furthermore, Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar appeared before the 42nd Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate in person today.

After hearing their plea, the court granted them bail.
