Trust vote ruckus: Committee to submit report on errant MLAs

Bangalore, December 3(UNI): The House Committee probing the misconduct of the 15 opposition party members in Karnataka Legislative Assembly during the first trust vote on October 11 for Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa will submit its report in the next ten days.

Appachu Ranjan, legislator from Kodagu, who is heading the committee, told reporters that he has completed his inquiry into the incidents and would submit the report to the Assembly Speaker for further action.

The Speaker had issued notices to 15 Opposition members from both Congress and JD (S) following a petition by the ruling BJP members complaining about the unruly behaviour which had brought down the dignity of House.

The two Opposition parties have been apprehensive of the BJP Government, having slender majority in the Assembly after the dissident crisis, as it may resort to ensure suspension of the members for the remaining period of the Assembly.
