Prove majority by July 19, K'taka Guv directs CM

Prove majority by July 19, K'taka Guv directs CM

Bengaluru, Jul 18 (UNI) Amid heated debate over the resignation of 15 MLAs of the ruling JD(S)-Congress coalition government, triggering a crisis in the ruling in Karnataka, Governor Vajubhai R Vala asked Chief Minster HD Kumaraswamy to prove his majority, before 1330 hrs on Friday.

According to official sources, the Governor, who had sent a message to the Assembly Speaker to complete the process of Motion seeking Confidence, moved by the Chief Minister on Thursday morning, had sent directions to the latter.

The House, which had taken up the Confidence Motion for discussion, was, however, transgressed to other issues, raised by Congress Legislative Party leader Siddaramaiah in a point of order, stating that the House needed to debate issues on the curtailment of rights and privileges of the members of the House and also Office of the Speaker.

Despite the Governor's direction, Deputy Speaker Krishna Reddy, who was in the Chair, adjourned the House, when the ruling party members raised slogans against BJP, for misusing the Office of the Governor.

With the fresh direction from the Governor to the Chief Minister to prove his majority on the Floor of the House on Friday, the fate of the 14-month-old JDS-Congress government, which is facing crisis, following resignations of 15 MLAs, will be decided tomorrow.
