Bangalore: Amid
continuing uncertainty about the fate of Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa, Karnataka Lokayukta N. Santosh Hegde Wednesday
submitted his report on illegal mining.
The report, said to be around 9,000 pages, was handed over by
Lokayukta registrar Kunhi Nair Moole to state Chief Secretary S.V.
Ranganath at the Vidhana Soudha, the state secretariat, about 200
metres from the ombudsman's office on Dr. Ambedkar Veedhi (Road).
Hundreds of curious onlookers were outside the Lokayukta office
complex, swarming with police personnel.
Moole, who was carrying a suitcase with the voluminous report, had
a tough time walking from his car to the Vidhana Souda through the
many camera crews jostling with each other to capture the moment.
The report will decide the fate of Yeddyurappa, his four
ministers, including the two Reddy brothers, former chief minister
H.D. Kumarasway and Congress Rajya Sabha member and mining baron
Anil Lad as well as about 500 officials.
At the Vidhana Soudha, the scene was no different as scores of
reporters and officials jostled for space in the chief secretary's
office.
