A high-profile scandal surrounds the illegal allotment of sites by the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) in Karnataka, as uncovered by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in its extensive money laundering investigation.

GT Dinesh Kumar, the former MUDA Commissioner, has been spotlighted by the ED for his alleged pivotal involvement in facilitating illegal compensatory land allotments to unqualified individuals.

This murky case implicates several prominent figures, including the wife of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, though the Lokayuktha Police cleared them of wrongdoing due to lack of evidence.
