Bengaluru: The Chief Minister Yeddyurappa has stated that he will abide by the Supreme Court orders in which the top court has asked the CM to prove his majority tomorrow itself.

After the Supreme Court ordered a Karnataka Assembly floor test on Saturday, Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa on Friday said he is confident of winning the required majority.

 An embattled Congress and JD-S have shifted their newly-elected MLAs to Hyderabad from here to prevent the BJP from poaching them ahead of the crucial floor test in the new Assembly, officials said on Friday.

The Supreme Court on Friday ordered a floor test in the Karnataka Assembly at 4 p.m. on Saturday.

A day after BJP's B.S. Yeddyurappa took oath as Karnataka Chief Minister dashing the hopes of JD-S-Congress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said he spoke to Janata Dal-Secular supremo H.D. Deve Gowda and wished him on his birthday.

Bengaluru: Governor Vajubhai Vala on Thursday night issued an order to appoint Senior Advocate Prabhulinga Navadgi as the Advocate General for the state with immediate effect.

Soon after Yeddyurappa sworn in as the Chief Minister of the state, he has withdrawn the police security provided to Eagleton Resort near Bidadi in Ramanagar where MLAs were camping.

KPCC president Dr G Parameshwar was elected as the Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader at a Legislature Party meeting held at Eagleton Resort in Bidadi on Thursday evening.
