Mysore/Mysuru: Home Minister Dr. G. Parameshwara has clarified that there is no need to hand over the conspiracy case against Dharmasthala Temple to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), as demanded by the Opposition BJP and JD(S).
Speaking to reporters yesterday at Southern Star Hotel in city, he responded to demands from BJP and JD(S) leaders who sought NIA involvement, citing inter-State financial transactions linked to the case. Dr. Parameshwara reiterated that the Special Investigation Team (SIT) is conducting the inquiry effectively and there is no necessity to involve NIA. “Who are we to dictate how the investigation should be conducted? Whatever is required for the investigation, SIT will carry out,” he said.
