In the lead-up to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, allegations have surfaced in Bengaluru involving inducements to voters by Congress workers, as claimed by the BJP and JDS leaders. BJP MP PC Mohan and JDS leaders, including HD Kumaraswamy and his son Nikhil Kumaraswamy, accused Congress workers, DK Shivakumar, and DK Suresh of distributing gift cards and money to voters in Bengaluru Rural and Bengaluru Central constituencies. HD Kumaraswamy highlighted that Congress used QR codes on these cards for cash transfers intended to buy votes. Nikhil Kumaraswamy recalled a similar incident from the previous assembly elections where Congress allegedly distributed Rs 5,000 coupon cards.
