1. Suspension of BJP MLAs: Speaker, Deputy Speaker meet Governor to brief him on situation

The BJP as well as the JD(S) on July 20 boycotted the House proceedings in protest against the suspension of 10 BJP MLAs. Only G. Janardhana Reddy of the Kalyana Rajya Pragathi Paksha (KRPP) was present in the House from the Opposition when the proceedings began this morning. The BJP members staged a dharna in front of the Gandhi statue at the Vidhana Soudha premises before deciding to meet the Governor and submitting a memorandum.

Karnataka Assembly Speaker U.T. Khader along with Deputy Speaker Rudrappa Lamani and Assembly secretary M.K. Vishalakshi called on Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot later and reportedly apprised him about the circumstances that led to the suspension till the end of the session.
