No political clearance sought or given: MEA on Prajwal Revanna

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) made a significant statement on Thursday regarding the alleged involvement of Prajwal Revanna, the Member of Parliament (MP) from Karnataka's Hassan, in a sex scandal. This is the first official reaction from the MEA on this matter. According to the MEA, no political clearance was sought from them nor was any issued about Prajwal Revanna's case.

Prajwal Revanna, who is the grandson of former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda and belongs to the Janata Dal (Secular) party, is currently under investigation by a Special Investigation Team (SIT) of the Karnataka Police regarding the sex charges. His family holds significant political influence in Karnataka, with his uncle, HD Kumaraswamy, having served as a former Chief Minister of the state, and his father, HD Revanna, being a legislator for the JD(S) party.

The 33-year-old MP is reportedly in Germany at the moment. It's worth noting that he left India on April 26, which coincided with the voting day in the Hassan Lok Sabha constituency, from where he is contesting for a second consecutive term. The fact that he's in Germany raises questions about his availability for any potential questioning or investigation by Indian authorities.

A notable point mentioned by the MEA is that diplomatic passport holders, like Prajwal Revanna, do not require a visa to travel to Germany. This implies that he may have used his diplomatic passport to travel abroad. The timing of his departure, just before the election results and amidst these allegations, has added to the controversy surrounding him.

The absence of political clearance from the MEA suggests that Prajwal Revanna's trip to Germany was not officially sanctioned or notified by the Indian government. This absence of clearance could have legal and diplomatic implications, especially if his overseas trip is seen as an attempt to evade the ongoing investigation.

The case has attracted significant attention due to the political stature of Prajwal Revanna and his family. It remains to be seen how the investigation unfolds and whether Prajwal Revanna will return to India to address the allegations against him. The MEA's statement indicates that the Indian government is aware of the situation and is closely monitoring it.
