Karnataka Minister bins Covid norms at MLA’s son’s wedding

Bengaluru: Coronavirus precautions went for a toss at the wedding of a Karnataka legislator’s son in Ballari, where Health Minister B. Sriramulu and many other politicians were also spotted.

“I have come across this. A large holding (wedding) was there. We have initiated action. A case has been registered,” Ballari Superintendent of Police C.K. Baba said on Monday.

Baba said the case was being investigated and the event’s visuals were available.

The Health Minister also attended the Hadagali MLA Parmeshwar Naik’s son’s wedding, where the Covid-19 norms were violated. Sriramulu was neither seen wearing a mask nor maintaining physical distancing while being photographed on the stage with the newly-wed couple.

Other politicians who attended the wedding included former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Priyank Kharge, G. Parameshwara, Lakshman Savadi and Prabhu Chauhan.

Several people were also seen attending the weeding under a tent and sitting on chairs without maintaining social distancing.

According to the central government guidelines, only 50 people are allowed to attend weddings amid the pandemic.
