BENGALURU: After the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) conducted raids on educational institutions owned by Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president D K Shivakumar, he said that he is being harassed from all sides, but has no fear of any raids since he has not done anything wrong.

Apart from this, they went to our hometown and conducted inquiries on our land.” He said that cases are going on against him and they are harassing him from all sides.

“I have no fear of CBI raid; I have not done anything wrong. BJP MLC H Vishwanath has recently spoken about financial transactions, but no one issued any notices about it. Apart from this, BJP has taken steps to decimate the the opposition. We will go to court with the people in this regard”, he added. (ANI)
