The BJP leader said that it is the responsibility of the CM to take this matter seriously and order a thorough investigation.

"It was an issue of honey trapping raised by none other than the senior Congress MLAs and a cabinet minister who raised the issue on the floor of the house yesterday and demanded an enquiry into the honey trapping. The home minister declared yesterday that they will probe into this matter, but later in the evening Home Minister G. Parameshwara said he didn't receive any official information regarding honey trapping. This means that Congress is trying to cover up the issue. It is the responsibility of the CM to take this matter seriously and order a thorough investigation," the BJP leader said addressing reporters.
