Rebel MLAs camping in Mumbai likely to board plane to Bengaluru in afternoon


PTI, Jul 11, 2019, 1:10 PM IST

Mumbai: Fourteen Karnataka rebel MLAs staying at a hotel in Mumbai may fly back to Bengaluru on Thursday afternoon to meet the Assembly Speaker, sources said.

The move comes after the Supreme Court allowed the rebel MLAs of the Congress-JD(S) coalition in Karnataka to meet the Speaker at 6 pm to convey to him their decision to resign.

“The rebel MLAs can now appear before the Speaker in Karnataka. They are planning to book a flight at 2 pm to Bengaluru so that they can meet the speaker and put forth their statement,” a source said.

Asked if some more ruling coalition MLAs in Karnataka were likely to switch sides, he said, “They will join these legislators in Bengaluru itself. The future course of action will be decided after the MLAs meet the speaker,” he said.

Fourteen MLAs — including those of the Congress, the JD(S) and Independents — have been staying at the Renaissance Hotel in Powai after resigning from the Karnataka Assembly and withdrawing support to the coalition government.
