Bengaluru: Karnataka Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot is expected to respond soon to the Cabinet resolution urging him to reject activist T.J. Abraham’s request for the prosecution of CM Siddaramaiah in the alleged Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) land allotment scam. The BJP and JD(S) are pressing for the prosecution.
The Governor returned from New Delhi yesterday, and all eyes are on his next move whether he will order CM’s prosecution. He has held consultations regarding several matters, including the investigation by a sitting Judge of High Court against Siddaramaiah. Gehlot has been discussing with senior officials and legal experts on the issue over past five to six days.
