Bengaluru: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah promised to re-appoint Nutan Kumari, the wife of slain BJP worker Praveen Nettaru, back to service on compassionate grounds.

The CM clarified that there was no government interference in Nutan Kumari losing her contractual employment.

In a Twitter post, on Saturday, CM Siddaramaiah write: “After a new government comes in, it is a natural process to dismiss the temporary employees who were appointed by the previous government from the government service. Not only Praveen Nettaru’s wife, more than 150 contract workers have already been dismissed from service. There is no government interference in this.”

“Considering this as a special case, Nutan Kumari will be re-appointed on humanitarian grounds,” Siddaramaiah added.
