The BJP on Thursday demanded the disqualification of Karnataka Urban Development Minister and Hebbal MLA, Suresha B S (Byrathi Suresh) from the state assembly after his alleged aides were held for creating fake Aadhaar, voter ID, PAN cards and driving licences.

In a complaint to the Election Commission of India, the BJP's Karnataka unit sought an investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation or the National Investigation Agency since the crime committed by the three people arrested by the police threatened national security.
