Stating that since the issue of the building's construction itself is sub-judice following the MCC Commissioner's order for demolition of parts of the Mall constructed in violation of license, Vidya Dinkar, activist and Joint Co-ordinator of the Forum has stated that any action in this regard by the Deputy Commissioner would not be in good taste and would set a bad precedent.
“It is disheartening the way in which the present Deputy Commissioner of Dakshina Kannada District seems to be favouring, parroting and pushing through with the intentions of the Applicants despite having ample proof at hand regarding the lack of safety of the said building, that too by using his public office and position to do the same. The undue and zealous interest shown by Dr N S Channappa Gowda, the Deputy Commissioner & District Magistrate, a public Authority, in the pursuit of the Applicants to establish a multiplex in a Mall, a high-rise building which has not been cleared for valid reasons by the Director General of Police and Director General Karnataka State Fire & Emergency Services as well as the Corporation of the City of Mangalore indeed raises serious questions/suspicion of receipt of probable gratification by the said Authority from the Applicants”, Ms Dinkar has stated in the letter addressed to the Chief Minister.
