How there was official lapse only in CM Siddaramaiah’s MUDA case?
Mysuru: With Mysuru Lokayukta SP T.J. Udesh submitting the preliminary status report to Lokayukta IGP A. Subramanyeshwara Rao on the investigation into MUDA’s allocation of 14 sites to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s wife, B.M. Parvathi, RTI activist Snehamayi Krishna has raised questions about why there is an alleged official lapse only in the case involving CM Siddaramaiah.
Speaking to the media at the Lokayukta Office on Saturday, Krishna referred to a report by Star of Mysore on the submission of the preliminary status report.
The report claimed there was no evidence on CM Siddaramaiah’s involvement in the alleged scam. Krishna pointed out that MUDA has been involved in many site allotments, questioning why the officials would be faulted only in Siddaramaiah’s case, if there were no lapses in other allotments.
“It has been learned that the Lokayukta Police have not found any evidence against CM Siddaramaiah in the MUDA scam. However, I have obtained documents proving his involvement. I have submitted a 36-page document to the Lokayukta as evidence of the CM’s role in the scam,” Krishna said.
Arguing that using one’s influence while in power is also unlawful, Krishna emphasised that the 36-page document he submitted outlines how Siddaramaiah leveraged his position as Chief Minister and Deputy CM. He added that if the Lokayukta Police report mentions no direct role of the CM, it inadvertently acknowledges his involvement in the case.
