Karnataka assembly adjourned till 11 am tomorrow

July 18, 2019 18:31

In a twist of events, the Karnataka assembly has been adjourned for the day, which means there will be no trust vote today.

The adjournment comes even as Governor Vajubhai Vala had asked Speaker KR Ramesh Kumar to conduct the trust vote on Thursday itself.

Vala's statement to Speaker said, "Motion of confidence is in consideration at the House. The chief minister is expected to maintain confidence of the House at all times. Consider trust vote by the end of the day." The Congress is reportedly against the direction, saying that there is no provision to allow the governor to direct a Speaker in this regard.

Reacting to the statement, Congress MLA HK Patil said that the governor should not interfere in House proceedings.
