The Karnataka High Court on Wednesday issued notices to Chief Minister S Siddaramaiah and other accused, including his wife Parvathi BM, on an appeal to transfer the MUDA investigation to the CBI.
The Mysuru Lokayukta police had filed a preliminary report after its investigation into the MUDA case and said that it found no evidence in the allegation against Partvathi, wife of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, and three others.
The judgment is likely to impact state politics directly and it will also draw attention at the national level.
