Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s plea against a Governor-sanctioned investigation into alleged corruption in the Mysuru Urban Development Authority has been postponed to January 20. He contests the legality of the sanction, claiming political motivations behind the allegations. The Lokayukta is investigating claims of improper land allocations to his wife amidst ongoing pressures from the BJP.
The Kerala High Court, led by Justice PV Kunhikrishnan, ruled that nurses should not be routinely arrested for medical negligence without essential evidence. The Court emphasized the need for societal and governmental support to protect nurses, who are critical in healthcare, ensuring they receive the same legal safeguards as doctors.
The Karnataka High Court has postponed trial court proceedings against CM Siddaramaiah regarding land allocation irregularities by the MUDA. The Governor’s decision to prosecute him is being challenged, arguing lack of justification and failure to follow the State Cabinet’s dismissal of the complaint. The High Court has temporarily restrained the trial court from proceeding, emphasizing the importance of its consideration.
