CM Siddaramaiah convenes CLP meeting in wake of governor granting permission to prosecute him
Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has convened a Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meeting on August 22 in the wake of Karnataka Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot granting permission to prosecute him in the alleged site allotment scam in Mysuru Urban Development Authority.
According to a statement issued by the chief minister's office, the meeting will be held in Vidhana Souda conference Hall.
Talking to reporters, Karnataka Minister for Information Technology and Biotechnology, Priyank Kharge said, "Since there is a huge uproar about the governor's role, we need to apprise our people. Ultimately they are public representatives; 136 MLAs need to know what is happening."
“The meeting is related to the MUDA developments. The chief minister will brief the Congress legislators about the facts of the case and will chalk out a strategy to fight the case legally and politically,” a source in the CM House told PTI.
