Mangalore, March 14: Chief Minister DV Sadananda Gowda has built a commercial complex occupying part of a public road, alleged Vijay Kumar Shetty, Former MLA and Congressman.
Addressing media persons in a press meet in Kottara Chowki, Mangalore, on Wednesday, Mr. Shetty, backed by a few locals, said that Mr. Gowda has allegedly built a complex on land that was being used by the local people there as a road. He also said that the road even features in the proposed plan of CDP as a public road and hence, CDP too is guilty of keeping its eyes shut. “If there is any doubt in our allegations, let a third party engineer carry out a survey. You will find that violation has taken place”, he said.
He also informed that after accumulating some more documents, a complaint would be filed with the Lokayukta.
Ajit Kumar, Former Mayor, said that the Mangalore City Corporation has been asking people to get rid of the cement bars used as shades in houses if they appear to have come out of the land's prescribed limit. “But in Mr. Gowda's building, there is a huge deviation and encroachment. The MCC gave the project license. But in the completion certificate, there is no mention of this deviation”, he said.
When asked as to what he thinks about the Congress leader Ms. Margaret Alva's denial to give land for road widening in Balmatta area, Mr. Shetty said “If we speak about it now, this case will become weak”.
Mangaluru, Jan 16: The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad is holding rallies and meetings and distributing booklets across the country in support of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, said ABVP National Secretary Harsha Narayan here on Thursday.
