Do not allow officials to escape disciplinary action: Govt. directs MUDA Commissioner
Mysuru: With the probe into the mega Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) alternative sites allotment scam underway, the State Government has directed the MUDA Commissioner to ensure that all officials and personnel, who have caused huge revenue losses to the Government, do not escape from facing disciplinary action.
As a step in this regard, the Under-Secretary of Urban Development Department K. Latha has asked MUDA Commissioner A.N. Raghunandan to provide complete details of officials who had served in the Land Acquisition section, Sites section, Accounts section, Engineering section, Record Room, Sub-Registrars and all other personnel who had served in MUDA right from the time when the official notification for allotment of alternative sites as per 50:50 ratio basis was issued and during allotment of alternative sites, auction of sites, Khata registration etc., within three days.
The Government on Mar.14, 2023 had constituted a Probe Committee headed by the then Director of the Directorate of Municipal Administration to carry out a probe into allotment of bit-of-land and allotment of sites under alternative sites scheme for land-losers, following which IAS Officer Prabhulinga Kavalikatti, who carried out a probe, had submitted a report to the Government on June 24, 2024.
Based on this probe report, the Government has written to the MUDA Commissioner seeking details of former MUDA Commissioner G.T. Dinesh Kumar (now under suspension) and other officials and staff as the charges of their involvement in sites allotment scam are found to be prima facie true.
