Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court has dismissed Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s petition challenging the prosecution sanction granted by Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot in connection with the MUDA case. With this decision, the court has upheld the Governor’s order.

Following the ruling, the Congress party strongly criticised the Governor and the BJP. In a post shared on the social media platform X, the Congress declared, "The struggle will continue; there is no question of bowing to the Governor's attempts to destabilize the government and the BJP's conspiracy."

The party also alleged that the Governor had been shielding complaints against JD(S) leader H.D. Kumaraswamy and other BJP leaders. They further claimed that the Governor’s inquiries into how these complaints were leaked demonstrated his political bias.
