A fake document allegedly issued from Karnataka's Chief Minister's Office has stirred controversy, prompting BJP MLA V Sunil Kumar to demand a forensic investigation. He questions the office's functioning and alleges a potential 'letterhead' scam, while also criticizing Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's administrative focus.

In Karnataka, a political storm is brewing following the circulation of a counterfeit document purportedly from the Chief Minister's Office. BJP MLA V Sunil Kumar has intensified his demand for a probe, questioning Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's governance and suggesting potential malpractice within the office.

The fake note, which surfaced on social media, erroneously announced the transfer of a health officer to a new post in Mysuru. The case, cited under forgery laws, is under investigation, with Kumar calling for a forensic analysis to determine the document's authenticity.

Kumar criticized Siddaramaiah's focus on his political position over office management, suggesting the scandal may involve more than just a rogue signature. Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah condemned the document's circulation, urging caution in the dissemination of unverified information online.
