CM Siddaramaiah Faces Lokayukta Probe in MUDA Case
In a major development, a Special Court has ordered the Lokayukta police to file an FIR against Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in connection with alleged irregularities in the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) case. The order came after a petition was filed, accusing the CM of involvement in land allotment discrepancies and misuse of authority during his tenure as the chairman of MUDA.
The case revolves around the alleged favoritism shown in the allocation of plots, with claims of illegal grants being made to certain beneficiaries. The court, after reviewing the evidence presented by the petitioner, found sufficient grounds to direct an investigation.
Lokayukta police have been instructed to immediately register a case and begin their probe into the matter. The Chief Minister has yet to make an official statement regarding the court's decision, but political tensions are already escalating as opposition parties call for his resignation.
The move comes at a critical time for Siddaramaiah, who has been facing increasing scrutiny over several controversial decisions. With this latest order, the CM finds himself embroiled in yet another legal battle, raising questions about his leadership and the integrity of his administration.
The investigation is expected to begin soon, with Lokayukta officials tasked with uncovering the extent of the alleged irregularities. The political fallout from the case remains to be seen, but the ruling could have significant implications for the state's government.
