Mysuru: A probe by Mysuru regional commissioner GC Prakash stated that the former Mysuru deputy commissioner Rohini Sindhuri did not obtain necessary clearances before constructing a swimming pool at the DC’s bungalow, Jala Sannidhi, a heritage property.
The regional commissioner who probed the case said the then DC had violated norms by not seeking clearance either from the heritage department or the empowered heritage committee before taking up the construction.
The probe report noted that the project was launched on December 30, 2020 and completed on February 26, 2021. On March 2, 2021, the project was approved during the general body meeting of the Nirmiti Kendra.
The State revenue secretary had ordered Mysuru regional commissioner to probe the construction of a swimming pool by DC Rohini Sindhuri in her official residence Jala Sannidhi.
KR Nagar JDS MLA Sa Ra Mahesh had submitted a complaint that Rohini constructed the swimming pool by violating norms in heritage building.
He has also demanded suspension of the IAS officer for constructing the swimming pool allegedly without permission of the heritage committee. He has alleged that vitrified tiles were installed in the pathway in violation of norms.
However Rohini Sindhuri, who was transferred out of Mysuru following a public spat between her and Mysuru city corporation commissioner Shilpa Nag, gave an explanation to regional commissioner claiming she did not violate any norms of heritage building.
In the explanation she said the construction of swimming pool was taken up by Nirmiti Kendra as a low-cost model to be replicated in all taluk centers.
But Mahesh filed a fresh complaint with Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa and chief secretary for allegations made against him by Sindhuri. The revenue secretary ordered the regional commissioner to submit report within seven days.
