Dharmasthala case: SIT report delayed due to technical issues, says HM Parameshwara
Bengaluru: State Home Minister Dr. G Parameshwara has said that submission of the report by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) appointed to probe the mass burial case in Dharmasthala is delayed due to technical glitches.
He further told reporters who met him on Thursday that the government had also postponed the deadline for submission of the report by a few days.
“The State Commission for Women has urged the government for a probe of the case, but only a comprehensive investigation will reveal all facts. The investigation, however, is time-consuming and the report too will have to be checked closely regarding all aspects of the case. Currently, there is a delay in the release of the report on account of technical problems,” Parameshwara told the reporters.
When asked about Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar's visit to New Delhi, he clarified that Shivakumar had gone to discuss issues related to the Irrigation Department with legal experts.
Speaking about the farmers' protest for a minimum support price (MSP) for sugarcane, Parameshwara told the reporters, “There are discussions with the farmers on an annual basis on the price of sugarcane. The farmers have demanded from us the same MSP as given by the Maharashtra government. We will discuss the matter with the farmers and give them suitable compensation.”
