The Karnataka Lokayukta gave a clean chit to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, his wife, and two others in the Mysore Urban Development Authority (Muda) site allocation case, with the anti-corruption watchdog set to submit a B-report citing lack of evidence. The investigation concluded that the allegations were civil in nature and did not warrant criminal proceedings.A notice was sent to complainant Snehamayi Krishna, a journalist and social activist, informing him of the findings. He has been given a week to challenge the report before the designated magistrate. The Lokayukta’s notice stated that the probe did not find sufficient proof to substantiate the charges and suggested that any discrepancies may have arisen from a misunderstanding of legal provisions.
