Bengaluru, Feb 20: The fight between two senior IAS and IPS officers in Karnataka has taken a major twist with the state’s Home Minister warning of a legal action against their public spat.

IAS officer Rohini Sindhuri, who is the incumbent Commissioner of the State Hindu Religious and Endowments, and IPS officer D. Roopa Moudgil, working as IGP, MD at Karnataka Handicrafts Development Corporation and recipient of President Gold medal, have come into confrontation mode recently. “The government has not closed its eyes to the developments. It is a big crime to put up such behaviour. The private matters are being dragged to the public domain. Their actions before the media is also incorrect,” the Minister said.  “People consider them as demigods and worship them. It is shocking to see the behaviour of both the officers. Due to their behaviour, they are causing insult to good officers. Those who do not have humane feelings can indulge in such acts. I have spoken to Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and DG. We will initiate action as per rules,” he stated.
