Davangere: Honnali MLA MP Renukacharya is in the news once again for the wrong reasons.

The MLA was found driving a public bus for close to 5-6km during the inauguration of brand new buses in a bus depot.

The MLA was invited to inaugurate 6 new buses which were setup in the Honnali bus depot.

Taking the inaugural ceremony as a chance to drive a bus, the MLA drove the bus for almost 5-6km on a main road with citizens around.

Activists in Honnali have shown their resentment towards Renukacharya’s dangerous act.

This is not the first time MP Renukacharya has done something so dangerous.

Back in January Renukacharya landed in a controversy by driving a KSRTC bus with more than 40 passengers on board for a distance of 50 kilometres in Shivamogga.

Following the incident in January, the manager of KSRTC Shivamogga division had issued a show-cause notice to the Honnali depot manager for allowing an unauthorised person to drive the vehicle.

Considering the incident as a serious lapse, the KSRTC divisional manager had asked the depot manager whether the person had a valid driving license.

Despite all the controversy that happened in January, the MLA has repeated the same once again.
