Bengaluru: A Congress worker walked into trouble after he allegedly forged AICC vice-president Rahul Gandhi’s signature and produced a ‘recommendation letter’ for the post of chairman of North Western Karnataka Road Transport Corporation (NWKRTC).
KPCC president G Parameshwara who had almost cleared Congress worker Santosh Patil’s name to head the NWKRTC, just called up Rahul to clear his doubts about the authenticity of the letter. Rahul Gandhi denied giving any recommendation letter for any post in Karnataka and Parameshwara was shocked to know that Santosh had forged the signature of Rahul to grab the lucrative post.
A shocked Parameshwara has initiated action to ensure a criminal case is slapped against Patil.
Heads for over 90 state government-owned boards and corporations will appointed soon as Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Parameshwara are holding talks with the high command in New Delhi on Monday.
