Kalaburagi, June 21 (UNI) Senior legislator BR Patil on Saturday reframed the controversy surrounding an alleged audio clip, in which he purportedly discusses corruption, as an urgent call for administrative reform, urging Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to take notice.
These remarks come in the backdrop of an audio recording doing the rounds on social media, purportedly featuring Patil’s voice alleging misuse of power and corrupt practices within the department.
Rather than deny or confirm the clip’s authenticity, Patil chose to focus on the larger issue. “But who will fix this system, sir? Shouldn’t Chief Minister Siddaramaiah take note of this? I haven’t yet called on him — but if called, I will go,” he declared, underscoring his readiness to engage with the state leadership.
