The Sanjaynagar police on Wednesday registered a first information report (FIR) against Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee working president Dinesh Gundu Rao, MLA, following a complaint by BJP MLC Lahar Singh Siroya for releasing a few pages said to be from him his diary that referred to alleged payments made to BJP central leaders.
