Leader warned BJP about Prajwal's sex videos months ago, urged party to not give him ticket

BJP leader Devaraje Gowda wrote a letter to Karnataka BJP chief BY Vijayendra in December 2023 about alleged obscene videos involving Prajwal Revanna, Hassan MP and grandson of ex-PM HD Deve Gowda. He warned against nominating Prajwal. "If we nominate a JD(S) candidate in Hassan, these videos can be used as a 'brahmastra' and we will be tainted," he added.
