BJP should resign from Goa, other states too: Congress

May 20, 2018 09:00

Following the political drama in Karnataka, the Congress on Saturday lashed out at the Bharatiya Janata Party and said if the saffron party has any shame then they should resign from Goa and from other states.

"Just like what happened in Karnataka, if the BJP government has any shame then they should forthwith resign from Goa and also from the other states where they have stolen the majority," Goa Congress spokesperson Yatish Naik said at a press conference..

Congress's statement comes after BS Yeddyurappa announced his resignation as chief minister of Karnataka ahead of the floor test paving the way for Congress and Janata Dal-Secular combine to form the government.

Now, Janata Dal-Secular leader HD Kumaraswamy will take oath as the Chief Minister of Karnataka on May 23. -- ANI
