Bengaluru: The transfer of Hassan Deputy Commissioner Rohini Sindhuri Dasari has sparked a political slugfest with Janata Dal (Secular) Supremo H.D. Deve Gowda accusing Hassan District in-charge Minister A. Manju of getting her transferred for not allowing “cuts” in civil works taken up for the Mahamastakabhisheka event in February.
Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru yesterday, Gowda said that Manju had demanded Sindhuri’s transfer as she had tried to curtail financial irregularities and misappropriation of funds. He said that he would write to President Ram Nath Kovind and bring to his notice the bad precedence set by the Government. Gowda said that he would boycott the inaugural ceremony of Mahamastakabhisheka on February 7. “I will not share the dais with this Chief Minister Siddharamaiah now or in future. This is one of the worst Governments I have seen,” he said.
