The State government’s recent notification on transferring two acres of land belonging to the Veterinary Department in the heart of Bengaluru city on Mysore Road in Chamarajpet constituency to the Minority Welfare Department has triggered a controversy with the Opposition BJP describing this as “appeasement of minorities” and demanding its withdrawal.
The State government had on February 26 issued a notification stating that two acres of land on which a veterinary hospital has been located will be transferred to the Minorities Welfare Department for building Maulana Azad/Morarji Desai Residential School.
