Kumaraswamy urges Amit Shah to initate inquiry into IPS officer M Chandra Sekhar’s conduct
Urges him to transfer MUDA scam probe to central agencies
New Delhi: Former Karnataka Chief Minister and Union Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy has written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah, urging the transfer of the investigation into the MUDA scam involving Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to central agencies. In his letter, Kumaraswamy expressed concerns over the impartiality of the ongoing probe by the Karnataka Lokayukta, highlighting the involvement of IPS officer M Chandra Sekhar, ADGP SIT in the Lokayukta, whom he accused of being closely aligned with the Congress-led state government.
Kumaraswamy alleged that M Chandra Sekhar, who responded to his recent press conference with what he described as an abusive letter, is part of a broader conspiracy to shield the Chief Minister and other Congress leaders from corruption allegations. He questioned the officer’s conduct and sought an independent departmental inquiry into his actions, adding that Chandra Sekhar’s prolonged tenure in Karnataka, which is not his parent cadre, should also be scrutinized.
Kumaraswamy pointed out that after the officer’s letter, there is little hope for an impartial investigation by the Lokayukta, as it demonstrated the officer’s allegiance to the ruling regime. He called for the central government’s intervention to ensure a fair probe, suggesting that the investigation be handled by central agencies to maintain transparency and integrity.
The JD(S) leader also attached a copy of M Chandra Sekhar’s letter and provided a link to the video of his press conference held in Bengaluru on September 28, where he outlined his concerns regarding the conspiracy against the Governor's office and the alleged nexus between senior police officers and Congress leaders.
