MLAs wanting to quit can send them again: Ramesh Kumar
The political crisis in Karnataka is likely to spill over into the legislature session scheduled to start on Friday, with Speaker K. Ramesh Kumar stating on Tuesday that the resignation letters of only five of the 13 legislators from the Congress and the Janata Dal (Secular) were in order.
“These five [letters] are [those] of Anand Singh, Narayana Gowda, Pratap Gouda Patil, Gopalaiah and Ramalinga Reddy,” he said.
“Since the other resignation letters were not in the prescribed format, we have sent them a reminder letter... if you wish, you can submit your resignations properly,” he added.
These eight legislators, many of whom are not in Bengaluru, are expected to return on Wednesday to re-tender their resignations in the right format.
