BJP urges Governor not to accept Horatti’s resignation
A delegation of BJP leaders petitioned Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot, urging him not to accept the resignation of Legislative Council Chairman Basavaraj Horatti, on the grounds that he was allegedly forced to quit by the Congress leaders
On Sunday, a delegation of BJP leaders approached Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot, requesting that he refrain from accepting the resignation of Legislative Council Chairman Basavaraj Horatti. The BJP delegation, headed by Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Chalavadi Narayanaswamy, claimed that Congress leaders, such as Chief Minister D.K.
Shivakumar, KPCC president B.K. Hariprasad, and MLC Saleem Ahmed, had illegally coerced Horatti into resigning. The BJP argued that the Congress leaders had pressured Horatti, who desired to step down during the upcoming Monsoon Session, which they deemed illegal and unconstitutional. The delegation urged the Governor not to accept Horatti's resignation and to initiate an inquiry into the matter, demanding that the Congress leaders who allegedly applied pressure face legal consequences.
