Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], October 1 (ANI): Karnataka Chief Minister Siddharamiah said that he was surprised by the decision of his wife, Parvati, after she offered to surrender all 14 plots that were allotted to her by the Mysore Urban Development Authority.
Taking to social media platform X, Siddharamiah said that his wife had suffered a lot due to the political conspiracy that had been directed against him.
He further expressed his regret for involving his wife in the political matter, which had also made her a subject to mental harassment as a victim of this “political vendetta” against him.
“My wife, Parvati, has returned the plots of land that were taken without compensation from the land acquired by the MUDA in Mysore.It is well known to the people of the state that opposition parties have fabricated false allegations against me to achieve political vendetta and have dragged my family into controversy. My stance has always been that we must fight against this injustice without bowing down,” Siddharamiah said on X.
“However, my wife, who has suffered due to the political conspiracy directed against me, has taken the decision to return these plots, which has surprised me. I regret that my wife, who has remained out of politics for the past four decades and limited her involvement to family matters, has been subjected to mental harassment as a victim of this political vendetta against me,” he added.
Earlier on Monday, after the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) booked the Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah for money laundering in a case linked to the allgeded MUDA land allotment scam, his wife wrote to the MUDA Commissioner and offered to surrender the 14 plots that were allotted to her by the authority.
Earlier on September 27, the Lokayukta Police filed an FIR against Siddaramaiah and others in connection with the alleged MUDA land allotment scam.
The FIR has been filed by the Mysuru Lokayukta under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including 351, 420, 340, 09, and 120B, among others.
The FIR was filed by Mysuru Lokayukta after a Special Court in Bengaluru passed an order directing them to conduct an investigation against Siddaramaiah on the allegation of illegalities in the allotment of 14 sites worth Rs 56 crore to his wife Parvathi by the MUDA.
The Mysuru Lokayukta has also officially started the inquiry and investigation into the case linked to the Mysore Urban Development Authority (MUDA) land allotment scam from Tuesday. (ANI)
