Bhavani Revanna Biography

Indian politician Bhavani Revanna is known for her role in local politics and as the wife of H. D. Revanna.

Early life and background
Bhavani Revanna was born on 19 November in Saligrama village in the Mysuru (Mysore) district. She is a native of that village and practices Hinduism. The available profile notes that she follows a vegetarian diet and is a devotee of the spiritual guru Shivakumar Maha Swami.

Career
Bhavani Revanna is active in regional politics and has been associated with the Janata Dal (Secular) party. Her public service record includes a term as a member of the Hassan Zilla Panchayat, where she also served as chairman of the Education and Health Standing Committee. These roles positioned her in local governance and community affairs before she sought higher office within her party.

In January 2023, she announced her intention to stand as the JD(S) candidate for the Hassan Assembly constituency in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly elections. That candidacy was later withdrawn by the party leadership; the ticket was ultimately given to another candidate, who won the seat. The decision produced visible disagreement within her family and political circle, as her husband supported her bid for a legislative seat.

Public profile
Bhavani is widely recognized in the context of her family’s political prominence. She is married to H. D. Revanna and is part of a family with several active politicians. Her husband’s father is H. D. Deve Gowda, who served as India’s prime minister, and her brother-in-law H. D. Kumaraswamy has served as chief minister of Karnataka. The couple have two sons: Suraj Revanna, a politician and surgeon who is a member of the Karnataka Legislative Council from Hassan district, and Prajwal Revanna, who serves as a member of the 17th Lok Sabha representing Hassan.

Her visual profile lists black hair and black eyes. Official addresses associated with her include a residence in Paduvalahippe Village and post, Kasaba Hosali, Holenarasipura Taluk, Hassan.

Controversies
Bhavani Revanna’s public life has included several contentious episodes that received media attention. In April 2023, she and her son Prajwal were accused by their driver of kidnapping and subjecting him to coercion related to the sale of land; the driver alleged forced signatures and withdrawal of funds. The complaint reached senior police officials, who reported finding no evidence to support the allegations and closed the matter.

In December 2023, a video circulated showing Bhavani arguing with villagers and a motorcyclist after an incident in which the motorcyclist had struck her car. The footage prompted criticism online, and a subsequent complaint under a traffic-related IPC section was filed by her driver against the motorcyclist.

Latest updates
Bhavani’s active engagement in local politics and the family’s high-profile presence in Karnataka’s political landscape have continued to keep her in the public eye. Her earlier municipal roles, the 2023 candidacy announcement and its aftermath, and the controversies reported in 2023 are the most recent documented events in her public record.

Personal and financial notes
Publicly available affidavits and disclosures for the 2021–2022 period list movable and immovable assets across cash, bank deposits, insurance, loans, jewelry and property holdings. These asset disclosures include values for agricultural and non-agricultural land, commercial and residential buildings, and other listed items. A rounded net worth figure is presented in those disclosures for 2021–2022 as an approximate value.
