Giving 15 days time to prove majority is unheard of: Singhvi to SC

May 17, 2018 02:37

Abhishek Manu Singhvi continues argument:

It's unheard that a party is given 15 days time to prove its majority from 104 to the magical number (112).

Giving permission to form the government to someone who is having 104 seats as compared to the other group that is having 116, is adding insult to injury.

The BJP has just 104 MLAs in support and the governor has invited the Bharatiya Janata Party leader B S Yeddyurappa to form the government. It is completely unconstitutional.

Yesterday, Congress legislature party passed a resolution supporting JD-S. H D Kumaraswamy submitted 37 MLAs' signatures to the Governor, supporting the Congress. -- ANI
