Eshwar Khandre seeks court-monitored SIT probe in Jarkiholi CD case

KPCC working president Eshwar Khandre on Tuesday demanded that the government constitute a High Court chief justice-monitored SIT probe into the sleaze CD episode.

Speaking in the Assembly, the Bhalki MLA said that people had no trust in the government-appointed SIT.

The chief justice-monitored SIT probe is essential for an honest investigation into the case, Khandre said.

Only such an investigation can redeem the trust and faith people have in elected representatives and rid the government of its 'immoral' tag, he said. Speaking on the Budget, he said that the government had failed to provide relief to flood victims in the Kalyana Karnataka region, as compensation for damaged houses was still pending.
