The Karnataka government has constituted four special investigation teams (SITs) to probe projects sanctioned between 2019-20 and 2022-23 in the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP). The BJP-led government was at the helm in Karnataka between 2019-20 and 2022-23.
The teams were formed to investigate projects approved for solid waste management (team led by Ujjwal Kumar Ghosh), road development (Amlan Aditya Biswas), storm water drains (P.C. Jaffar), and lake development (Vishal R.). The SITs will examine whether the projects taken up in the last three years adhere to statutory compliances.
