‘he/she did not take the first step… Jaishankar made Karnataka government listen in Prajwal Revanna passport case

New Delhi : External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday refuted allegations of protecting Janata Dal Secular MP Prajwal Revanna. The External Affairs Minister revealed that the Ministry of External Affairs had received a request from the Karnataka government on May 21 itself to impound Revanna’s passport. The process of confiscating passports is done under a law called Passport Act. The Foreign Minister said that to do this we need a request from the judicial court or the police. The Ministry of External Affairs received this request from Karnataka only on 21 May. The Foreign Minister said that they (Karnataka government) did not take the first step.

We took immediate action: Jaishankar

The Foreign Minister said that we immediately took action on this. On 23rd May… After this we will have to follow a certain procedure and the process will start. Asked about the Congress government’s allegations against the BJP about saving Revanna, Jaishankar said, “They did not take the first step.” I mean, that’s not the first case where passports are being confiscated. The revelation came a day after Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah immediately requested for cancellation of JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna’s diplomatic passport, along with concerted efforts to ensure his/her return to India.
