Union Minister Kumaraswamy hospitalised in Bengaluru after nose bleeding

Union Minister HD Kumaraswamy was rushed to the hospital after his nose started bleeding during a press conference in Bengaluru on Sunday. Kumaraswamy attempted to stop the bleeding with a cloth, but his shirt became soaked with blood.

The press conference was held following a meeting of BJP and JD(S) leaders, including state BJP President BY Vijayendra, Kumaraswamy, and Karnataka's Leader of Opposition, R Ashoka. The leaders gathered to discuss corruption allegations in Karnataka, specifically focusing on the Mysore Urban Development Authority (MUDA) scam.

Vijayendra stated that the senior leaders from both BJP and JD(S) met to address the ongoing corruption under Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's leadership. He accused the Congress government of embezzling funds intended for the welfare of the Scheduled Tribe community in the ST Development Corporation scam, among other corrupt activities.
