The High grounds police on Sunday registered an FIR against BJP president JP Nadda,IT cell head Amit Malviya,and BJP state president BY Vijayendra for uploading animated video on social media to demean minority community in bad light .
The case has been filed following a complaint filed by KPCC’s media and communication wing chairman Ramesh Babu alleged in his complaint that Malviya posted a video on @bjp4karnataka based on instructions from Nadda and Vijayendra to spread enmity and trigger hatred in the wake of election.
In his complaint Mr.Babu said that the official X handle of BJP Karnataka posted the video,depicting caricatures of Rahul Gandhi and Siddaramaiah, showing them placing an egg labelled “Muslims”in a nest with three other eggs marked “SC, ST, and OBC”.
The clip showed Rahul feeding “funds”only to the bird that hatched from the “Muslim”egg,which then kicked the birds that hatched from the “SC, ST, and OBC” eggs.
Babu alleged this video was posted to incite enmity among communities and violates the code of conduct.
Congress also expressed shock at the video being cleared by the state-level media-monitoring committee.
