A Bengaluru Special Court dismissed a complaint against CM Siddaramaiah and Minister K J George, which alleged a Rs 68 crore loss to BBMP due to their actions from 2015 to 2017. The court found the allegations baseless, lacking evidence, and described them as vague, suggesting the complaint was politically motivated.

Today, On 9th September, The Karnataka High Court extended the stay on trial court proceedings against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in the MUDA case until September 12. The case involves alleged irregularities during his tenure as Chairman of MUDA. The court postponed the hearing on Siddaramaiah’s petition challenging the Governor’s approval for his prosecution to the same date. This extends temporary relief to the CM as the legal battle continues.
Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah has taken his case to the Supreme Court after the High Court rejected his plea to dismiss a 2022 case related to a protest march. The march aimed to demand a minister’s resignation and resulted in an FIR against Congress leaders. Siddaramaiah contends that the protest was peaceful and did not constitute an unlawful assembly.
