Career
In 2014, Prajwal joined the campaign of H. D. Deve Gowda from Hassan in the 2014 Indian general election. In 2015, he was among the 10 young aspiring politicians in India to be chosen by Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, UK, to be exposed to the British way of governance. Although a JD(S) member, his entry into politics was delayed after the party denied him a ticket in the 2018 Karnataka Legislative Assembly election. Nevertheless, he was involved in the politics of Hassan. In 2019, Deve Gowda allowed Prajwal to contest from Hassan for the Lok Sabha, himself moving to Tumkur. Prajwal won from Hassan, and became the only winner from his party’s six candidates that contested the elections. Within 12 hours of the win, saddened by his grandfather’s defeat from Tumkur, Prajwal announced his resignation and offered the seat to Gowda, who asked him to reconsider the decision. In September 2019, the Karnataka High Court issued a summons to him over an incomplete election affidavit. Petitioners of the summons accused Prajwal of filing a false and incomplete affidavit with his nomination papers during the 2019 elections. In January 2020, Justice John Michael D’Cunha dismissed the first petition on grounds that the petitioner had not complied with the statutory procedure under Section 81(3) of the Representation of the People Act, 1951, and the second on technical grounds. Prajwal contested the Hassan constituency in the 2024 general election, but his polling agent filed a complaint about falsified photos and videos circulated in the district. The Karnataka government established a Special Investigation Team to probe the allegations, urging the State Commission for Women. Pen drives containing these videos were circulated and thrown in public places. Prajwal fled the country for Germany, and his party suspended him until the SIT probe was completed.
