“Will wear PayCM t-shirt,” DK Shivakumar dares Karnataka govt to arrest him

Karnataka Congress chief DK Shivakumar has challenged the BJP government in the state to take action against him and former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for wearing the “PayCM” t-shirts.

It comes after multiple Congress party workers were arrested for wearing the t-shirt during the ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’.

“The Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah and I and other leaders will participate in Bharat Jodo Yatra by wearing ‘PayCM’ t-shirts. Let’s see what the BJP will do,” he said.

The Congress has been doing the campaign to highlight alleged corruption of the ruling BJP government in Karnataka by using QR-coded images of Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai along with a “PayCM” logo.

A Congress worker was forced to remove his “PayCM” T-shirt on Saturday while participating in the Bharat Jodo Yatra, and an FIR was also filed against him at the Chamarajanagar police station.

“All sections including farmers are suffering. On the one hand, there is corruption and unrest, on the other hand, there is the problem of farmers and unemployment. An atmosphere of fear has been created among the people,” Shivakumar said.
