An FIR has been filed against BJP MLA BP Harish in Karnataka following offensive remarks made towards a woman IAS officer, Uma Prashanth. The Davangere police took action after Harish allegedly insulted the Superintendent of Police (SP) by comparing her behavior to that of a pet dog. Speaking at a public event, Harish criticized the officer, claiming she ignored him while showing deference to members of the Shamanur family, employing a disparaging analogy. This incident marks the third instance of a politician in Karnataka making disrespectful comments towards a female bureaucrat in recent months.
