Officials from the MEA confirmed that the decision aligns with the standard protocol for MPs facing legal and ethical investigations. The diplomatic passport, a privilege accorded to MPs to facilitate their international travel and diplomatic engagements, is now under review as part of the broader disciplinary measures against Revanna.

Prajwal Revanna, who represents the Hassan constituency, has been embroiled in controversies that led to his suspension from active duties. The legal proceedings against him have raised questions about his conduct and eligibility to retain diplomatic privileges.

An official statement from the MEA highlighted, “In light of the ongoing legal investigations and the suspension of MP Prajwal Revanna, the Ministry has initiated the necessary steps to revoke his diplomatic passport. This measure is by the established norms and procedures governing the conduct of elected representatives.”

Revanna’s suspension and the subsequent review of his diplomatic status come amidst increasing scrutiny of political figures and their adherence to legal and ethical standards. The action taken by the MEA reflects the government’s commitment to upholding the integrity of its representatives both domestically and internationally.

The revocation process involves a thorough review of Revanna’s current legal standing and the implications of his suspension. Should the diplomatic passport be revoked, it will mark a significant step in the enforcement of accountability among political officeholders.

As the legal proceedings progress, further actions may be taken depending on the outcomes and findings related to Revanna’s case. The MEA has assured the public that it remains vigilant and committed to ensuring that diplomatic privileges are not misused.
