State ministers’ move to secure a court injunction against the media houses from publishing or airing “defamatory” content proved to be counter-productive as it has caused more embarrassment to the BJP government led by BS Yediyurappa
Bengaluru: State ministers' move to secure a court injunction against the media houses from publishing or airing "defamatory" content proved to be counter-productive as it has caused more embarrassment to the BJP government led by BS Yediyurappa.

This is peak fascism!!! BJP has more to hide than reveal!!! #BJPCDScandal."
Ruchira Chaturvedi, from Congress social media in a tweet said, "The acts of BJP leaders are not defamatory but reporting on them is defamatory? Waah! #BlueJP #BJPCDScandal."
Gaurva Pandhi, National Coordinator, digital communications and social media at the Congress said, "While BJP has failed to deliver on jobs for the youth of India, of whatever is left of it, they are using it to exploit women by offering jobs in return of sex.
