Union minister Anant Kumar Hegde's personal assistant Suresh Shetty, has lodged a complaint at the Market police station here in Sirsi, stating that a false and accusatory Facebook post has been made against the minister.

Prajakeeya party supporters have made a post in their Facebook account accusing Hegde of saying that he will bring down the statue of Nadaprabhu Kempegowda and erect a statue of Shivaji in its place; if he wins the election. The post has been made in a Facebook account titled "Prajaakiya'.

Shetty has added in the complaint that the minister has never made any such statement anywhere, and that the people behind the post are spreading false rumours; as elections are nearing.

The complaint mentions two Facebook accounts titled 'Manju power star' and 'Prajaakiya'.
