Nikhil Kumaraswamy hails Governor’s nod for CM's prosecution as victory for alliance parties
Bengaluru: Nikhil Kumaraswamy has declared that the Governor's approval to investigate Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in connection with the Muda scam is a significant victory for the alliance parties.
In a post shared on his X account, Nikhil Kumaraswamy asserted, "The Governor's action has validated our fight for truth. Just as the existence of the sun and moon is undeniable, so is the fact that the Chief Minister's family engaged in illegal activities in the Muda scam."
He further stated that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has no choice but to acknowledge the truth and the illegalities involved. "He must take moral responsibility and resign from his position. Siddaramaiah, who has repeatedly claimed to be clean, should step down with dignity. If he fails to do so, our struggle will persist," Nikhil Kumaraswamy warned.

4 workers die after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad
Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
