Karnataka: Collegium' to pick Lokayukta
CM Siddaramaiah seems set to recommend the name of Justice Nayak to Governor Vajubhai Vala.
Bengaluru: Notwithstanding a 4-2 vote in favour of former Supreme Court judge Mr Justice Vikramjit Sen, CM Siddaramaiah reportedly insisted on recommending the name of former chairman of state human rights commission, Justice S.R. Nayak, for the key post of Lokayukta on Friday.
Official sources said Mr Siddaramaiah seems set to recommend the name of Justice Nayak to Governor Vajubhai Vala soon after the moral code of conduct for zilla and taluk panchayat polls draws to an end next week. This despite four of the six members of a high-power panel, which included acting Chief Justice S.K. Mukherjee, batting for Mr Justice Sen.
