Belagavi Mayor and BJP leader Shobha Payappa Somanache has written to Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot with a complaint that district in-charge Minister Satish Jarkiholi is interfering in the city administration and making it difficult for her to work independently or fearlessly.
She said that some officers in the Belagavi City Corporation have purposefully erred in preparing documents that were sent to the State government. This has led to the State government issuing a show-cause notice to the Belagavi City Corporation, with a warning that it will supersede the local body.
Corporation council members have passed a resolution recommending legal action against those officials who have made the mistake. “We have filed complaints against them with the UPSC, DoPT and DPAR,” she said.
