Karnataka: In the wake of the Congress’s resounding victory and Siddaramaiah’s swearing-in as Karnataka’s new chief minister, party members cleaned and sanitised the Vidhana Soudha’s grounds with cow urine on Monday. DK Shivakumar, the head of the Congress in Karnataka, who took office as the state’s deputy chief minister on May 20, had suggested in January of this year that cow urine should be used to “cleanse” the Vidhana Soudha (Assembly).

The erstwhile Opposition party claimed that the state’s ruling BJP administration looted Rs 1,50,000 crore when they were in office, and the “corruption rate card” was published in both English and Kannada.
