suspension of 146 MPs from the Parliament. "Whether Pratap Simha is a traitor or a patriot -- mother Goddess Chamundeshwari sitting on the hills of Mysuru, mother Goddess Cauvery who is sitting on Brahmagiri, my reader fans across Karnataka who have been reading my writings for the last twenty years, and people of Mysuru and Kodgu who have seen my work for 9.5 years and my conduct on issues related country, dharma and nationalism -- will give their verdict through votes in Lok Sabha polls to be held in April 2024," Simha said, reported PTI. "They (people) are the ones who have to ultimately give the judgment.
They will decide whether I'm a patriot. I leave it to their decision. I don't have anything to say other than that," the BJP MP added on the posters calling him a "traitor".
While commenting on the role of BJP MP Pratap Simha, Union Parliamentary Minister Pralhad Joshi said that the authorities probing the Parliament security breach have recorded his statement and an investigation is on in the matter.

The intruders raised slogans and released yellow smoke through canisters, they were hiding in their shoes.
