The Karnataka State Government Hostel and Residential Schools Contract Workers’ Association has sought a Criminal Investigation Department probe into incidents in which students fell ill after eating food at Morarji Desai Residential Schools in Dandoti and Karajagi, Kalaburagi district. Association president Bheemshetty Yempalli said suspending principals, wardens and kitchen staff could close the case without identifying the wider causes. He alleged administrative lapses, corruption and irregularities in outsourcing and kitchen staff recruitment. The association plans an indefinite protest outside the Kalaburagi Zilla Panchayat office from August 11. It has also demanded disciplinary action against officials found responsible.
