The Lokayukta police have summoned Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for questioning in the Mysore Urban Development Authority (MUDA) site allotment case on November 6, official sources said on Monday.

On October 25, CM’s wife Parvathi BM, who is also an accused in the case, was questioned by the Lokayukta police. The CM is facing allegations of illegalities in the allotment of 14 sites to his wife by MUDA.

It is alleged that the compensatory sites were allotted to Parvathi in an upmarket area in Mysuru having higher property value as compared to the location of her land which had been “acquired” by MUDA.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
