Raichur: Primary and Secondary Education Minister Tanveer Sait has said that he would sue the media for slander in connection with the reports that he was watching porn during Tipu Jayanti programme on Thursday.

“I was watching visuals of Tipu Jayanti celebrations in Mysuru and not any porn. The media has blamed me for the wrong I have not committed. I have also made preparations to lodge a complaint with the cyber crime police,” Sait told reporters here on Friday.

To a question, Sait said that he had discussed the issue with  KPCC president Parameshwara and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and would personally meet the party leaders after reaching Bengaluru.

He said that no one, including the Congress high command had sought his resignation. He claimed that the allegation against him was quite different from that against BJP ministers (who were caught watching porn in the Assembly). Meanwhile, Raichur district unit of Kannada Rakshana Vedike on Friday lodged a police complaint seeking action against Sait under Section 354(c) of IPC.
