MUDA Reclaims Plots from Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's Wife Amid Legal Scrutiny

The Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) has decided to reclaim 14 plots allotted to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's wife, Parvathi B M, after she relinquished ownership and possession. This decision follows an Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigation into alleged irregularities in the allotment. Parvathi asserted that no property is more valuable than her husband’s dignity.

The Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) on Tuesday decided to reclaim 14 plots that were earlier allotted to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's wife Parvathi B M, following her decision to relinquish ownership and possession.

This development comes in the wake of an ongoing investigation by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) into a money laundering case involving the Chief Minister. Parvathi's action is seen as a move to safeguard her husband's reputation and dignity.

MUDA Commissioner A N Raghunandan stated that after thorough consultations and legal verifications, the Authority has ordered the cancellation of the sale deed and has handed over the plots to the sub-registrar. The case has raised questions about the legality of the land allotment under the controversial 50:50 ratio scheme.
