The former Chief Minister contended that this is a desperate and deliberate attempt by his political opponents and adversaries.

Dear well wishers,
A morphed (deep fake) video of mine has been making rounds on social media. I would like to inform that, it is not me in the video, its created to malign my impeccable image by my adversaries with vested interest. 1/3

The Minister reportedly has told police if any person is found uploading the video on social media or forwarding the same, he asked the cops to bring it to his notice.

In March, a similar incident had happened when a controversial video emerged. The video had former minister Ramesh Jarkiholi and a young woman.

The video resulted in the minister being sacked from the Cabinet. The MLA initially denied his role in the video and later reportedly agreed to cops that it was he who was seen in the video and contended that this was done to blackmail him.

Two years ago, a similar video had gone viral on social media and in the controversial video former minister Arvind Limbavali was seen with a young man.

The leader also had a court stay and contended similar reasons as 'fake' and done with intention to damage his image.

He also had obtained a court injunction, and a person had made the video viral and a case had been registered at HAL police station. The person identified as Nawaz from Padarayapura was summoned and his phone was confiscated. It is said Nawaz circulated the video from his phone to damage the BJP leader's name.
