K'taka CM refuses to withdraw new ACB plan
Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah on Tuesday refused to withdraw a notification that will replace the Lokayukta police by setting up a new Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB). However, he said the government can discuss strengthening the Lokayukta institution. A police unit had been working under the Lokayukta for the last 30 years in Karnataka to report on the corruption in the government.
