Adjusting to situation is better than becoming vote bank of Congress: Roshan Baig tells Muslims
Bengaluru: "Leaders are not thinking about protecting the coalition government in the state. In coalition, both the parties should have faith on each other. Unfortunately, there is no such a development here", MLA Roshan Baig who was suspended from the Congress said.
Speaking to reporters at his residence at Frazer Town in the city on Sunday, he said that "I will not say anything right now. At present I am the president of the State Haj Committee. I would disclose about my decision in a couple of days", he said.
"Is state Congress incharge KC Venugopal remembered me now? Some party leaders are recalling me now. They have suspended Roshan Baig. Is telling truth in Congress a crime? Is this the respect you have shown towards me for working for the party all these years? Why are you trying to contact me after suspending from the party? Some senior leaders have been trying to contact me and I would not disclose their names", he said.
"I will not to go to the doorsteps of any leader. But my doors are always open and anybody can come in",he said clarifying that he would not meet Congress leaders.

2 people killed in collision between jet and vehicle at New York's LaGuardia Airport, source says
New York (AP): An Air Canada regional jet struck a firetruck on the runway after landing at New York's LaGuardia Airport late Sunday, crushing the nose of the plane, according to authorities and photos of the wreckage.
Two people were killed, according to a person familiar with the investigation into the crash. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss an active investigation.
There were 72 passengers and four crew members aboard the aircraft, a Jazz Aviation flight operating on behalf of Air Canada, according to a statement from the airline. The flight originated at Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, the major airport serving Montreal.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said in a statement that the jet had struck a rescue and firefighting vehicle that was responding to a separate incident at about 11:45 p.m. The airport was closed as of 3 am to facilitate the investigation, officials said.
Photos and videos from the scene showed severe damage to the front of the aircraft, with cables and debris hanging from a mangled cockpit. Nearby, a damaged emergency vehicle lay on its side.
Stairways used to evacuate passengers from aircraft were pushed up to the emergency exits on the jet, a Bombardier CRJ. The impact left the jet with its crumpled nose tilted upward.
Jazz Aviation issued a statement confirming the accident and noting the passenger and crew list was preliminary and subject to confirmation.
The National Transportation Safety Board said it was investigating the incident.
