Karnataka Resort Politics  

JD(S) MLAs are expected to be taken to a Kodagu Resort by evening. The resort has been booked for three days by the party.

Following the resignation of 12 MLAs on July 6 and MLA Anand Singh's resignation on July 1, the BJP has booked rooms for MLAs at a prestigious hotel in the outskirts of Bengaluru to prevent poaching, said sources.

Here is how Karnataka farmers have decided to treat state MLAs if they are found holed up in a resort.

Karnataka Congress MLA Anand Singh was assaulted by party MLA Ganesh in a resort on the outskirts of Bengaluru. Arrest warrant has been issued against Ganesh, who is currently absconding. While Congress promised to arrest Ganesh, BJP launched a scathing attack.

Medico-legal registry of MLA Anand Singh states that he suffered injuries to his head, face, chest and eye. If this is true, legal action will be taken against MLA Ganesh, said Singh's wife Laxmi.

Karnataka Congress's man known for 'resort politics', DK Shivakumar, seems to have taken a back seat

While BJP’s BS Yeddyurappa, according to sources, is trying his last shot at forming the government in Karnataka, state Congress leaders are mulling Assembly dissolution to stop the opposition’s ploy

Amidst withdrawal of support, chief minister Kumaraswamy said that he is calm, and he knows his strength. But one of the independents who withdrew support from Karnataka government is sure to join BJP.

With two independent MLAs pulling out of the Karnataka government and showing interest in joining the BJP to install a stable government, the strength of the coalition government has come down to 118 seats in the 224-member Assembly.
