SC orders disgruntled Karnataka MLAs to appear before speaker on Thursday to resign
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday morning ordered the disgruntled MLAs of Karnataka to appear before the assembly speaker in the evening at 6.pm on Thursday and submit resignation in person.
The apex court also ordered the speaker to decide on the resignations of the MLA during the course of the day while also ordering police protection for them.
Earlier, after submitting resignation to the secretary of the speaker in his absence the disgruntled MLAs had camped in Mumbai following which the speaker had refused to accept the resignation without meeting them.
The MLAs had then knocked the doors of SC for its intervention into the matter. The matter was listed for urgent hearing on Thursday.
The court will hear tomorrow the decision of the Speaker.
In their plea, the rebel MLAs had alleged that the Karnataka Assembly Speaker was not accepting their resignations deliberately as the political crisis in the state showed no signs of abating. The plea, which has sought direction for the Speaker to accept the resignation of these MLAs, would be heard by a bench of Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi and Justices Deepak Gupta and Aniruddha Bose.
