Bengaluru, Jun 16 (UNI) The National Herald controversy resurfaced on Tuesday as Karnataka BJP leader Vijayendra Yediyurappa launched a sharp counterattack on Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge over his remarks questioning the transparency of the RSS, intensifying the political confrontation in the state.

“Transparency sounds rich coming from someone whose party still owes clear answers on the National Herald controversy,” Yediyurappa said, directly targeting Priyank Kharge.
