Bengaluru: Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara on Sunday said there has been no response from the Central government yet on the demand for cancellation of diplomatic passport of Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna in the rape case.

The Congress leader asked Jaishankar what happened to the letter sent by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on May 1.
