Former HC judge to probe Karnataka land scams

Government of Karnataka today appointed a Commission of Inquiry under Justice B.Padmaraj, former Judge of Karnataka High Court on illegal allotment of sites by Bangalore Development Authority and de-notification of land notified by BDA. The scope of inquiry covers the period commencing from January 01, 1995 till the date of issue of this Notification. The Government order also directs that the Commission shall complete the enquiry and give its report within a period of one year. Chief Minister Yeddyurappa had announced that a retired Supreme Court Judge will be appointed to inquiry into land deals, when the Opposition demanded for inquiry against series of charges made against him for allegedly grabbing prime land at cheap rates. He has now returned the land and site that was allotted to his family members.
