The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

- Shivakumar at the Ivane Shahi Guest House in Kalaburagi and submitted a memorandum seeking release of pending bills.
- The contractors said bills for around 300 completed government works have not been paid for nearly six months because of the KKRDB's third quality inspection team.
