Echo of ED, Lokayukta investigations: Anger erupts as MUDA public services paralysed
Mysuru: Public protests flared up outside the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) Office yesterday as citizens expressed outrage over the suspension of crucial services like site registration and house plan approvals. The disruption stems from ongoing investigations into site allotment irregularities by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Mysuru Lokayukta.
Protesters claimed that the daily presence of Lokayukta and ED officials, probing illegal site allocations to influential politicians, has paralysed the MUDA Office. Public access has been blocked, with Police and CRPF personnel guarding the entrance, preventing citizens from entering the premises.
A security cordon has been established under the guise of preventing interference with the investigation, halting vital public services such as site registrations and house plan approvals. This has only fuelled public anger.
Many protesters voiced their frustration, pointing out the irony of having Siddaramaiah, a fellow Mysurean, as Chief Minister, while their essential work at MUDA has been frozen due to investigations involving cases linked to him.
