Addressing media persons in the city the former union minister said that he demanded the Karnataka government to set up a Commission of Inquiry under the leadership of a a Supreme Court judge to unearth the misappropriations in the implementation of the project.

"Prima facie, it seems that officials involved in the implementation of Yettinahole project have committed various offences that come under IPC sections 463 (forgery), 464 (making false document), 468 (Forgery for purpose of cheating) and 420 (cheating)," Mr Poojary said.

"Let chief minister Siddaramaiah order a Commission of Inquiry to bring the truth to light. Let the people of Karnataka know all types of misappropriations that have taken place in implementing Yettinahole project. All officials and political leaders, who are involved in the misappropriation, should be brought before the law. Former chief ministers, who have taken initiative to implement the project, also should be brought under the purview of Commission of Inquiry," Poojary said.

Questioning the process in which the detailed project report (DPR) was prepared, he said, "They claim in DPR that project is aimed at lifting 24tmc of water from Yettinahole. Let them provide information on place and method of measurement used to calculate the water availability in Yettinahole project. Officials and political leaders have been misleading people and CM too. False documents have been prepared to get clearances for the project," Poojary alleged.

New Delhi, Apr 19: The government on Sunday prohibited the sale of non-essential items through e-commerce platforms during the ongoing lockdown, four days after allowing such companies to sale mobile phones, refrigerators and ready-made garments.

Union Home Secretary Ajay Bhalla issued an order excluding the non-essential items from sale by the e-commerce companies from the consolidated revised guidelines, which listed the exemption given to the services and people from the purview of the lockdown.

The order said the following clause -- "E-commerce companies. Vehicles used by e-commerce operators will be allowed to ply with necessary permissions" -- is excluded from the guidelines.

The previous order had said such items were allowed for sale through e-commerce platforms from April 20.

However, the reason for reversing the order is not known immediately.
