RTI activist says he has proof of Siddaramaiah's involvement in MUDA case

India Today  

More irregularities in Mysore Urban Development Authority site allotment came to notice when an RTI activist alleged that Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had undue influence on the process. RTI activist Snehamayi Krishna, in a post on Facebook on November 10, wrote in Kannada that he had proof of Chief Minister’s sway on the allotment irregularities, even though Siddaramaiah said he didn’t have any influence on it. But notice Siddaramaiah’s wife Mrs. Parvati’s brief letter, it is sure that Mudada's special tehsildar has paid the stamp fees! And since the chief minister’s name is involved in this, he should hand in his resignation.” Siddaramaiah has asserted frequently that he would not resign, and reiterated there was no wrongdoing on his part in the MUDA land allotment case.
