Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has distanced himself from the burgeoning controversy surrounding a honeytrap scandal that allegedly targets Karnataka ministers and MLAs.

Cooperation Minister KN Rajanna claims that a staggering 48 MLAs, transcending party boundaries, have been ensnared. The scheme reportedly has nationwide reach, ensnaring even Union ministers. Shivakumar encouraged Rajanna to file a formal complaint, withholding further comment.
