‘My Wife Victim of Politics’: Full Text of Siddaramaiah's Letter

"My wife Parvati has returned the lands that were given in the form of compensation for the land that was seized without carrying out Muda land acquisition in Mysore. The people of the state also know that the opposition parties created a false complaint and dragged my family into the controversy to create political hatred against me.

My stand was to fight without bowing down to this injustice. But my wife, who is upset with the political conspiracy going on against me, has taken a decision to return these plots, which has surprised me too.

My wife, who never intervened in my four decades long politics and was confined to her family, is a victim of the politics of hate against me and is suffering psychological torture.
I am sorry. However, I respect my wife's decision to return the plots."
