BENGALURU: Following an alleged attempt of the city police to arrest journalist and YouTuber Ajeet Bharti in Noida, Karnataka BJP president BY Vijayendra criticised the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government.

Amidst a buzz that police had reached Noida to arrest Bharti, the latter took to X on Thursday, stating, “Noida police swung into action as soon as I informed them. The work that could have been done by an e-mail, three cops were sent to do that.”
High Grounds police said, “We have served notice to Bharti to appear before the police. He has not been arrested.”
