MUDA Commissioner transferred

January 10, 2022

Mysore/Mysuru: In a  sudden and surprising development, the State Government today transferred Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) Commissioner Dr. D.B. Natesh. The officer has been transferred without any posting, it is learnt.

Within hours of the transfer, MCC Commissioner G. Lakshmikantha Reddy took additional charge as MUDA Commissioner this afternoon.

Dr. Natesh, who had taken over as MUDA Commissioner from P.S. Kantharaju on May 4, 2020, was transferred to Animal Husbandry Department at Bengaluru in June 2021. The Government then had appointed KAS officer Sheelavanth M. Shivakumar in place of Dr. Natesh.  But the Government cancelled Natesh’s transfer in just a day and the officer continued to serve as MUDA Commissioner, until his transfer today.

Dr. Natesh was in the news recently for operations and drives aimed at reclamation of encroached or grabbed MUDA properties worth hundreds of crores of rupees in and around the city.

    No wonder these drives costed him his spot at MUDA. The corrupt politicians and their chelas don’t like honesty and honest officers.
    New slogn: Asathya Meva Jayethe

  2. Gladson says:

    Hope he had not raised his voice against our so called MP who is always busy in dividing the people based on religion. And off cource, because of the drives he conducted, may be most of the lands were encroached by the chelas of corrupt politicians. Shame on the government. Greater Mysore.

  3. Zaheer Ahmed says:

    Not surprised. The most venerated and loved DC Ms. Rohin Sindhuri too had this sudden uncalled-for transfer in hours just because she was an honest government servant going after land mafia dons. As long as we have the politician raj these things keep happening. People are just helpless spectators. No matter who you elect, they all come in the same fur.

  4. Kumar Setty says:

    This reminds me DC Ms. Rohini Sindhuri transfer. I think people have accepted bribes and corruption as a standard practice and no longer an offence. In one of the sub registrar office the sub registrar openly ask for a bribe, no shame.

  5. Kumar says:

    Presume its time for the public to organize themselves and start questioning the electef representatives

  6. Raghu says:

    Being a staunch Modi supporter, it pains and disillusions me to see the BJP in our state as no different from other parties. The moment there’s an alternative, I will stop voting for these parties.

  7. K Sridhar says:

    And yet during the ladst general election our PM had promised “minimum government and maximum governance” and had also promised to root out curruption. Having a BJP govt in Karnataka has not made any impact in so far as curruption is concerned. In fact curruption is rampant and any government servant who is honest is treated with contempt, transfers or worse, are treated as criminals. The real crooks and currupt politicians go scot free.

    Hey posters
    Every politician and every official in India is corrupt to the core. The institutions and society too are corrupt.
    The gift of independence!
