The grand wedding is scheduled for November 16 at the Palace Grounds in Bengaluru. The gala event will be aired live only by Janasri TV channel and no other media house has been permitted for reporting/live telecast of the programme.

A media centre will be set up near the marriage venue from where photographs/footage could be obtained. Lok Sabha member B?Sriramulu will be in charge of all these arrangements. The star night, to be held from November 12 to 15, is meant only for the family members and VIP?guests.

Big fat wedding

Reddy, who had invited reporters to his residence on Friday, gave details of the big fat wedding, during a chat over breakfast.

He offered to take scribes to Bengaluru by an air-conditioned bus and reserve rooms for them in a star hotel if they wished to attend the wedding. Parrying a question on the money being spent on the wedding, Reddy said that he would furnish information on his income and the marriage expenditure to the departments concerned, within one month of the event.

“Journalists can also obtain information under the Right to Information Act and make an interesting report,” Reddy quipped. Replying to a query, Sriramulu, who was also present on the occasion, said that around 50,000 guests were expected for the wedding.

Reddy was arrested by the CBI in 2011 on charges of large-scale illegal mining and the Supreme Court granted him bail in January 2015, on the condition that he shall not visit Ballari. However, following a plea by Reddy, the SC allowed him to visit Ballari for 21 days from November 1 in connection with the rituals relating to his

daughter's wedding.

Siddaramaiah said that according to a submission to the Karnataka High Court the government has submitted that it has incurred Rs 3,392 crore expenditure for Corona in the State so far. While the market price for equipment purchased will not exceed Rs 1163 crore and it clearly shows that the corruption is to the tune of Rs 2,000 crore.

Siddaramaiah speaking to a private TV channel here on Friday said the chief minister B S Yediyurappa-led State government should come out with a White Paper on the money spent for purchases made facilities provided to patients.

According to submission to the Court, the Government has purchased 1000 Ventilators by paying Rs 120 crore, while the market price is Rs 40 crores at Rs 4 lakh for each Ventilator. Why is Rs 120 crore more paid, does it not lead to doubt the government's claim. For purchase of kits, mask, gloves etc. it amounted to Rs 1,500 crores but paid by the government was Rs 9,000 crore."
