Mangauru, May 9: The Congress leaders and supporters in poll-bound Karnataka are facing the wrath of Income Tax department. Last night two business establishments having close association with a prominent Congress leader in Dakshina Kannada district were raided by the I-T sleuths.

The raid comes two days after I-T sleuths raided the Krishna Heritage, a resorted owned by the Hosapete Congress MLA Anand Singh in Badami taluk of Bagalakote district.

Mogarody Constructions, owned by Sudhakar Shetty and located at Kavoor Junction in Mangaluru taluk, and Birwa Centre, a hotel owned by Sanjeev Poojary and  located at Melkar in Bantwal taluk are the two new targets of the I-T department. 

Both Sudhakar Shetty and Sanjeev Poojary reportedly have close links with B Ramanath Rai, who is who is contesting from Congress for eighth time in Bantwal constituency. According to sources, a few Congress leaders had recently held meetings these two places.

The Congress has been accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi led union government of misusing the I-T department to target the ruling party of Karnataka, ahead of the assembly polls.
