Former Chief Minister of Karnataka and JD(S) chief, HD Kumaraswamy, has claimed that he paid a fine of Rs 68,526 for alleged power theft to illuminate his home during Deepavali. Kumaraswamy said that this was due to an error made by an electrician and accused the government of running a campaign against him. However, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah insisted that Kumaraswamy had paid the penalty because he was involved in power theft. The Congress party had previously alleged that Kumaraswamy had "stolen electricity" and posted a video as evidence.
