Kulkarni family to seek governor permission to file case against Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah

BELAGAVI: In respect to 26 acres 32 gunta disputed land near Sangolli Rayanna Circle in city, 30 members of Kulkarni family and their power of attorney holder Shankar Munavalli, ex KPCC member will meet the governor at Raj Bhavan on Thursday. Presently, Belagavi tahasildar has imposed section 144 IPC on disputed property.
In a press conference, Munavalli said there is no provision in CrPC to impose prohibitory orders on private property.High court has clearly instructed police department to give protection to Kulkarni family to enjoy the property, giving verdict against the Methodist Church authorities. Despite clear orders, local police and district administration working in favour of Church authorities following the oral instructions of the government.
Munavalli alleged in order to appease a group of people of particular community for votes, government is disrespecting court orders and troubling Kulkarni family. He said recently, CM Siddaramaiah and home minister G Parameshwar have referred the case to CID, bowing to the pressure of church authorities. It is nothing but the insult of high court orders. It’s a nothing but misuse of power and fit case to prosecute. Kulkarni family will seek permission from government to file case against CM and home minister, he said. “Government is all doing this under the pressure of AICC member Sonia Gandhi, who is the leader of All India Christians”, he alleged.
“Although, I am a member of Congress party, but we will meet opposition leaders BS Yeddyurappa, Jagadish Shettar and HD Kumarswami seeking help to get justice. We will also file contempt of court against local police and tahasildar Preetam Nasalapure and another case for hatching criminal conspiracy to book members of Kulkarni family and him in false cases”, Munavalli said. He said district in-charge minister Satish Jarkiholi and local MLA Firoz Sait are interested in the disputed property and trying to grab the precious land from backdoor.
