Union Minister Joshi said after videos of injured IAF officials that Karnataka is under Congress.

Alliance Consumer Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi said on Monday that Karnataka cited early morning incidents in Bengaluru, which was allegedly attacked by some locals in a road rage incident.

The video clip of wing commander Shiladitya Bose narrated the incident with his bleeding face, prompting an angry reaction on social media. He is heading to the airport with Madhumita Dutta, the leader of his wife squadron from the CV Raman Nagar area. The dispute between Bose and the cyclist led to the so-called physical struggle.

The couple then filed a complaint with Baiyyappanahalli police officers who registered the case.
Union Minister Joshi said in an article on X: “A Indian Air Force officer and his wife were brutally beaten on the streets of Bangalore while traveling. Bleeding and injured, he shared the terrifying suffering when he was stopped, abused and attacked.”

The union minister added: “What hope does ordinary citizens have when those who defend our sky are unsafe? Law and order have completely collapsed. Karnataka deserves better.”

DCP (East) D Devaraja said they tracked the biker and arrested him. He added that police had checked CCTV footage and it was obvious that both sides could avoid road rampage.
