by reciprocal arrangement with Star of Mysore

Bangalore, Sep 15: The second bomb in the series by BJP MLC Janardhana Reddy was dropped yesterday with regard to the allegations of bribery made by Reddy against the Chief Minister and others recently.

The CD, having a single file, carried a hazy picture of Forest Minister C. Chennigappa, wearing a striped shirt, sitting before a pile of currency notes of the highest denominations.

The CDs with 'Janardhana Reddy CD' superscribed on its cover were delivered to newspaper offices here.

The CD comes barely two days after the UL Bhat Commission, appointed by the Government, issued a formal notification seeking information about mining in the State from the public, associations, institutions and others.

Chennigappa, however, pooh-poohed the CD saying anyone could produce such a picture using the latest digital technology. "They released CDs earlier too. But the efforts to malign us has fallen flat on its face," he said.

CD: Now it is MLA Somashekhar's turn!

Mysore, Sep 15: Krishnaraja constituency MLA M.K. Somashekhar has declared that he has in his possession a CD containing material relating to land-dealings in Mysore and surroundings by former MLA A. Ramdas. He would soon release the CD, he added.

He disclosed the above while addressing a press meet here yesterday. T.M. Vijaya Bhaskar had prepared a report about the land illegally acquired by Ramdas and his supporters in Mysore and surroundings.

The related CD had been prepared and the same would soon be released by him, Somashekhar said.
