NCW Demands Action from Karnataka Police on Sexual Abuse Allegations Against MP Prajwal Revanna

The National Commission for Women (NCW) has issued a three-day ultimatum to the Karnataka police to provide a report on allegations of sexual abuse involving Lok Sabha MP Prajwal Revanna.

In a letter addressed to the Karnataka Director General of Police (DGP), the NCW expressed its concern over several video clips circulating on social media allegedly showing obscene acts committed by Prajwal Revanna, the sitting MP for the Lok Sabha from the Hassan constituency, involving multiple women.

“The Commission strongly condemns the incident and is deeply disturbed by its occurrence. Such events not only endanger women’s safety but also foster a culture of disrespect and violence against them. We urge prompt and decisive action from the concerned Police Authority to swiftly apprehend the accused, who has fled the country,” stated the commission in its missive.

The commission has demanded a comprehensive report detailing the actions taken by the relevant police authorities within the stipulated three days.

NCW Chairperson Rekha Sharma underscored that the state women’s commission had already taken cognizance of the matter, leading to the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT). She also questioned the state government’s decision to allow Revanna to leave.

“We have also asked the DGP about the status today. Why did the government let him away when NCW had registered a complaint and why a police action wasn’t taken, and no arrest was made… Karnataka government needs to answer the questions. This is a big issue. Several women have allegedly been sexually assaulted. It doesn’t matter if the videos are old or recent, a crime is a crime,” she asserted.

An FIR alleging sexual harassment was lodged on Sunday against Prajwal and HD Revanna, an assembly member, based on the complaint of a woman who worked at their home. The woman alleged she was sexually abused multiple times between 2019 and 2022.
