The Karnataka High Court guided the candidates to document an affidavit in the court on the advantage and their effects, if Speaker of the Legislative Assembly disqualfies seven JD(S) rebel MLAs who have just resigned from their posts.
Two JD(S) legislators C N Balakrishna (MLA Shravanabelagola) and B Ningaiah (Mudigere) have recorded a request of looking for preclusion of seven rebel JD (S) MLAs who defied the party’s whip in the 2016 elections to the Rajya Sabha by voting for a Congress competitor.
The candidates had additionally looked for a course to the Speaker not to allow them to vote in the Rajya Sabha elections held a month ago.
