New Indian Express  

BENGALURU: Both Houses of the Legislature were adjourned sine die on Thursday as Bharatiya Janata Party and Janata Dal legislators continued their protest seeking a debate on the alleged irregularities in allotment of sites by the Mysuru Uruban Development Authority. Both Houses witnessed pandemonium on Wednesday as BJP and JDS legislators also raised the alleged scam in the Maharshi Valmiki Scheduled Tribes Development Corporation. With Enforcement Directorate officials arresting former tribal welfare minister B Nagendra and summoning chairperson of the corporation and MLA Basanagouda Daddal for questioning, the opposition parties stuck to their demand and insisted that Siddaramaiah, who also holds the Finance portfolio, resign immediately. Although Siddaramaiah admitted that the scam had happened in the corporation, he defended himself and his government stating that officers of the corporation and the Union Bank of India were responsible for the illegal transfer of money to various bank accounts.
