Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s son, Yathindra Siddaramaiah, made scathing remarks against BJP leader and Home Minister, Amit Shah, during a Congress meeting in Hanur, Chamarajanagar district. He labelled Shah as a 'goonda' and 'rowdy', alleging his involvement in criminal activities and pointing to murder charges related to the 2002 Gujarat riots. 

Speaking at the event, Yathindra Siddaramaiah criticised the BJP-led government's failure to fulfil its promises, particularly regarding job creation and tackling black money.
