Mohammed Nalapad, son of MLA NA Harris, has been appointed as president of the Karnataka Youth Congress with immediate effect. Siddu Gowda, a Youth Congress leader from Ballari, had accused Nalapad of assault, only to withdraw the statement later.
Gowda, the Ballari district Youth Congress president, along with two of his associates were allegedly attacked on January 19. The incident came to light when Gowda allegedly posted about the incident on Congress' internal WhatsApp group. However, he has since denied the incident.
Nalapad had received the highest votes in the Youth Congress election but was disqualified as he was out on bail in a pub brawl incident. He was arrested in 2018 for bashing up the son of a prominent businessman in the city.
Nalapad Harris was out on bail after remaining in judicial custody for three months for attempt to murder.
However, after rounds of talks with high-level leaders within congress, Nalapad was assured he would be given charge on January 31. The order was issued by the national president of Youth Congress BV Srinivas.
