Mangalore, July 22: BJP is directly involved in the leakage of the Lokayukta report, alleged KPCC Secretary Ivan D'Souza in a press meet on Thursday.
The BJP government knew that they will lose power once the Lokayukta report is published, hence they have played a game of leaking the report beforehand so that the report loses its significance, he said.
Lokayukta has also agreed that former MP V Dananjay Kumar has presseurised him with regard to the report. BJP government has played a game, to retain their power and immediate action should be taken against those involved in the leakage scam. A criminal case should be filed against them, said Ivan.
MCC is going to implement the 24X7 water supply, similar to the Hubli pilot project. With this, the water supply project will be given to private companies. This will increase the water bill three times more than the present and cause a burden on the common man. It will also give an opportunity for corruption, said D'Souza.
He further added that if MCC continues with the privatisation of water supply, then a massive protest will be held by the Congress party.
