And the Prime Minister, in front of the people of Karnataka, was supporting and seeking vote for this mass rapist. He is saying that if you vote for this mass rapist, it would help him."

MLC Ramesh Gowda contends that Rahul Gandhi's statement implied he had knowledge of the specific details and identities of the "400 women raped" but failed to disclose this information. As a result, he said, "Rahul Gandhi is liable to be booked for the offence under Section 202 of Indian Penal Code, 1860."

Gowda emphasised the necessity for justice for the alleged victims, stating, "Rahul Gandhi should provide the details of the 400 women who were raped by Prajwal Revanna to a Special Investigation Team."
