KPCC Expels Kripa Alva for Six Years Over Sting Operation

The Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee has expelled former general secretary Kripa Alva for six years for her alleged involvement in a sting operation targeting party leaders. The expulsion follows Alva’s failure to respond to a show-cause notice regarding the incident, which party officials stated caused significant embarrassment.

Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah identified Alva as the source of a defamatory video, leading to a court injunction against its circulation. Bengaluru police investigations have since dismissed the sexual abuse allegations within the video as a fabricated narrative, confirming that no such incident occurred.
