Karnataka's Minister for Large and Medium Industries, MB Patil, announced that the government will pursue legal action regarding a notice issued to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and others. The notice is related to a petition filed by activist Snehamayi Krishna, seeking to transfer the MUDA case to the CBI. The Karnataka High Court has asked the Lokayukta police to provide details of their investigation by November 25, with further hearings set for November 26.
The case involves allegations of illegal allotment of 14 sites worth Rs 56 crore to Siddaramaiah's wife, Parvathi, by the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA). The Mysuru Lokayukta initiated an inquiry following a court order on September 27. CM Siddaramaiah confirmed receiving a notice from the Mysore Lokayukta and stated he would appear on November 6.
MB Patil criticized the BJP for what he described as "dual standards" in their trust of investigative agencies like the CBI and ED, suggesting political motives behind the actions.
