A new chapter in the MUDA land allotment controversy in Karnataka has unfolded as a woman named Jamuna filed a civil suit, claiming rights over land previously acquired by the authority from Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's wife, Parvathi BM.

Jamuna alleges she was improperly deprived of her share in the land, located in survey number 64 of Kesare village, which measures three acres and 16 guntas. The disputed land had been gifted to Parvathi by her brother, Mallikarjuna Swamy, following a purchase from Devaraju, who is Jamuna's uncle.

In a case registered by Lokayukta police, accusations have surfaced against Siddaramaiah and his associates, alleging that MUDA provided plots of higher value to Parvathi compared to what was originally acquired. As tensions rise, Parvathi has returned the plots to MUDA, while Jamuna asserts her claim, having learned of her rightful share amidst the unfolding controversy.
