The Congress government in Karnataka through its notification of August 26 withdrew the appointment of G Bhavani Singh as the Public prosecutor, whom the outgoing BJP government in Karnataka had appointed evidently in a gesture of reciprocity for Jayalalitha’s softness towards not just the BJP but its PM candidate Narendra Modi, though at th...
