A day after his teenaged son Nikhil landed himself in a controversy over a brawl in a hotel in Bangalore, Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy on Friday sought to play down the incident, saying, "Sometimes these things happen."
The hotel has also complained against the CM's son.
The state government argues that these schools have been violating the language policy, which is the core to the state's Kannada ethos.
The PM appealed to politicians, members of the film fraternity, sportspersons, businessmen, spiritual leaders and members of the media to encourage increased voter participation and urged them to inspire more people to come out and vote during the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.
