BENGALURU: The Greater Bengaluru Authority Employees’ and Officers’ Association has written to Deputy Chief Minister and Bengaluru Development Minister DK Shivakumar, asking him to intervene on the issue of Special Commissioner (Revenue), GBA, Munish Moudgil, verbally abusing and mentally harassing lower-ranking officials. Association president A Amruth Raj said the delegation will meet Shivakumar as Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) Chief Commissioner M Maheshwar failed to do so. Amruth Raj said the department’s staff, many of whom have over 25 years of service, unanimously feel they have never encountered such behaviour from any officer in the past. Responding to the development, Moudgil said, “I have recommended suspension and disciplinary proceedings against revenue officers who harassed citizens by unjustifiably rejecting their e-Khata applications. Following this, false and baseless claims have been made by the GBA officers and Staff Sangha, including allegations that I used unparliamentary words during reviews.
