2 months after alleging that she was harassed by then Karnataka labour minister Parameshwar Naik, Former DSP Anupama Shenoy has released audio tapes which allegedly contains her conversation with Naik and other senior police officers.
Shenoy has also written to Home Minister Rajnath Singh, appealing him to take action against the seniors who had allegedly pushed her to resign. Shenoy alleged that the tapes show how the former Minister spoke rudely to her and how her seniors transferred her after the conversation with the then labour minister Parameshwar Naik.
The Karntaka govt has played down the charges, claiming that it was merely a verbal discussion.
"Is their any intention behind that?" exclaimed law minister TB Jayachandran. The verbal discussion was not substantial enough to accuse the minister, added Jayachandran.
The BJP has something else to say about it. "she was forced to resign by the Karnataka government" said BJP leader Jagdish Shettar. He said that the system has "completely collapsed" in Karnataka and the Chief Minister has no control over the administration.
The claims however have not turned out to be very damaging for the government. The case is taking a political turn with the BJP alleging that an honest officer was being put under pressure by the Karnataka government.
