After ascent to CM, Shivakumar’s ties with Bengaluru real estate firms back in focus | Political Pulse News
Allegations of conflict of interest and land deals raise concerns about abuse of power.
D K Shivakumar, the new Karnataka Chief Minister, has faced allegations of conflict of interest throughout his political career. These allegations stem from land deals involving real estate firms and projects during his time as urban development minister and involve properties in Benniganahalli, Minerva Mills, and Salarpuria Sattva Divinity project. Shivakumar's tenure as CM will be scrutinized for its impact on public good versus private profit, particularly given ongoing legal challenges over land ownership disputes and protests against a proposed township in his home district.
