Ministers Krishna Byre Gowda, Dinesh Gundu Rao and Santhosh Lad held a joint press conference on September 19 and released documents regarding the denotification of 1.11 acres of land at Gangenahalli in Kasaba hobli of Bengaluru North.

Claiming that he had nothing to do with the case, Kumaraswamy said he had never done anything that was illegal while in power and during his tenure as CM. “In connection with the Gangenahalli case, four ministers had held a press conference against me. I had said that day too, I have nothing to do with it (case),” he said.
