A video depicting Congress MP from Bengaluru Rural D K Suresh slamming police for allegedly blocking his vehicle during his election campaign in Karnataka is viral on social media. The video shows the MP warning the cops of getting them transferred if they didn’t listen to him.<\/p>\n

BJP leader and leader of Opposition in the Karnataka Assembly R Ashoka shared the viral clip on X (formerly Twitter) and stated that the Congress MP’s behaviour was an example of hooliganism. He wrote, “Look what is going to happen today in Kanakapura under your watch. While all the policemen are doing their duty, (D K Suresh) asks them ‘Are you standing in a bullock fair?’ Is this Gandhigiri or gunda-giri?” (Archive<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Suresh’s brother, D K Shivakumar, is the Congress MLA from Kanakapura constituency in Karnataka and the deputy chief minister of the state.<\/p>\n
