The Congress on Monday said its Karnataka MLA Anand Singh was injured after he suffered a fall and there was no fighting between its lawmakers "as alleged by the BJP", even as its state unit suspended legislator J N Ganesh, who has been accused of assaulting Singh.
Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi played down the alleged incident involving Anand Singh and Ganesh and accused the BJP of spreading such news about fighting between MLAs of the ruling party.
The party appeared to be in a damage control mode after the row involving Ganesh who was slapped with a case of attempt to murder for allegedly hitting Anand Singh during a brawl at a private resort here on Saturday night.
"There is no fighting. I think the BJP stands exposed. The official version which we have heard it, somebody suffered a fall," Singhvi told reporters.
Asked about the alleged violence that took place, he said, "This is your version, I don't know about it."
