Politician Dragged & Removed by Congress in Karnataka

Chaos erupted in Karnataka’s Legislative council with Congress manhandling a senior JD(S) leader. Watch our latest video for all the details.

Karnataka Legislative Council gathered on Tuesday 15th December. A no-confidence motion was passed against the Chairman of the Legislative Council Prathap Chandra Shetty who belongs to the Congress party. Deputy Chairman SL Dharmegowda, who belongs to the JD(S), went and sat at the Chairman's empty seat. In response to this, irate Congress MLCs rushed to the chair demanding that he get up. The Congress members alleged that the Deputy Chairman forcibly occupied the chair after planning to remove Prathap Chandra Shetty. There was complete chaos. Several members and marshals of the council were also allegedly manhandled. 


Meanwhile, the Congress managed to make one of its members occupy the chair, despite objections from BJP and JD(S) MLCs. After some time, Shetty entered the Legislative Council and went up to the chair even as Deputy Chief Minister CN Ashwath Narayan tried to obstruct him from occupying it. Shetty then announced that the house was adjourned.
