Bengaluru, May 6: A complaint has been registered with the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Karnataka Lokayukta against Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge’s son-in-law Radhakrishna Doddamani and five others on Monday in connection with alleged Rs 800 crore scam.

The complaint was registered by BJP Bengaluru South District President N.R. Ramesh.

   

The complaint has named Radhakrishna Doddamani, who is the Management Committee Chief in the Dr B.R. Ambedkar Medical College and Dr B.R. Ambedkar Dental College as the prime accused. The charges against him include alleged corruption, cheating, creation of fake documents, forgery and misuse of power.

H.S. Mahadeva Prasad, Dr N.T. Murali Mohan and V. S. Kuber are the other accused. The complaint has also been lodged against the Public Relations Officer Amanulla Khan.

The complainant N.R. Ramesh said that the accused indulged in collecting hundreds of crores from failed and ineligible students of rich families to provide them seats to study MBBS and BDS courses by creating fake documents.

“Scam involves more than Rs 800 crores in connection with admissions to Dr B.R. Ambedkar Medical College and Dr B.R. Ambedkar Dental Colleges. Though the college employee association members, activists and few members of the administration committee have filed complaints to the Governor’s office, Chief Secretary of Karnataka government, no action has been initiated in this regard,” he alleged.

He said that since 2008-09 till date, thousands of illegalities have come forward regarding admission under the management quota.

“After the appointment of Amaunalla Khan, a fourth-grade officer as a PRO, the failed students were given admissions violating all rules and guidelines,” Ramesh said.
