Bengaluru, May 16: A few MLAs are reportedly missing from the legislative party meeting that is ongoing at the Congress headquarters on Queens Road in Bengaluru. 

The missing Congress MLAs are: Anand Singh, Nagendra, Bhimanayak, Ganesh Hukkeri, Yashwanthrayagouda Patil, Tukaram, Mahantesh Kaujalagi, Satish Jarakiholi and Ramesh Jarakiholi.

On the other hand a senior Janata Dal (Secular) leader revealed that only 32 of the 37 JD(S) MLAs have reached the party’s legislative meeting in Bengaluru. 

The party was waiting for five of its MLAs to reach the Shangri-La Hotel in Bengaluru’s Vasanthnagar neighbourhood. He, however, insisted that the missing leaders were on their way to the hotel for the party's meeting.

Those MLAs are  elected from the party ticket  and they should not have individual power to submit approval. 

It is the right of the party to whom they belong.

 

Such shameless candidates should be severly punished by the elected people so that no horse trading can happen.

Bengaluru, Aug 4 : Without mentioning any party leader's name, Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Monday appealed to Congress workers not to make any "defamatory statement" against any political leader on social media platforms.

Taking to Twitter, Shivakumar wrote, "I appeal to Congress workers not to make defamatory statements against any political leader, on matters of health and other issues on social media platforms. It is not in our culture to wish bad for others. Congress is a party that exemplifies brotherhood and humanity."

His statement comes days after Rajya Sabha MP and AICC in-charge for Gujarat, Rajiv Satav comment where he suggested that introspection in the party should begin from the time of the United Progressive Alliance -II government.

Later, Satav took to Twitter to clarify his remarks at Thursday's meeting of the party's Upper House MPs. Satav, through a series of tweets on Saturday, said he was not comfortable discussing what goes on inside party meetings in forums outside.
