The Chief Secretary of Karnataka is in the eye of a storm

The second most powerful man in Karnataka is in the eye of a storm. An RTI activist group, Mahiti Hakku Jagruti Vedike, has claimed to have unearthed a corruption case against Chief Secretary P B Mahishi
.
The group claims a CBI FIR of 2006 names Mahishi as accused for a Rs-8.48 crore scandal in the Tribal Co-operative Marketing Development Federation of India Ltd.
After being told by the Chief Secretary's office that the government has no information about the case, the group is now planning to approach the Governor

"We are confident once he gets the authentication from the CBI, he will be asking the present Chief Secretary not to continue as Chief Secretary,” says President of the group, JSD Pani.
Though unwilling to comment on camera, CBI sources confirm that the case was registered in Delhi and that investigations are on.
