Karnataka High Court Eases Travel Restrictions on Minister B Nagendra
The Karnataka High Court has relaxed travel restrictions on Minister B Nagendra, accused in a money laundering case linked to the alleged Rs 94.73-crore Valmiki corporation scam. The court allowed him to travel within India without prior trial court permission but maintained the restriction on international travel. Nagendra resigned in June 2024 amid allegations and was later reinducted into the Cabinet. The Enforcement Directorate's plea to cancel his bail remains pending before the court.
