July 18, 2019 10:31

In Bengaluru, Congress leader Siddaramaiah arrives at the Vidhana Soudha ahead of the floor test today.

BJP State President BS Yeddyurappa who is also at the Vidhana Soudha, said the BJP was 101 per cent confident of winning the floor test. They are less than 100, we are 105. There is no doubt that their motion will be defeated.

Janata Dal Secular-Congress coalition government, led by Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, will face its trust vote in the state Assembly on Thursday.

The discussion on the vote of confidence will start at around 11 am in the Assembly.

Kumaraswamy on Wednesday issued whip to all 37 MLAs of JD(S) including three rebel legislators Narayana Gowda, Gopalaiah and H Vishwanath to be present in the Assembly at the time of trust vote.

Kumaraswamy has warned that if MLAs do not attend the House and vote against the party whip even after attending the session on the day of trust voting, action will be initiated under the rule of Anti-Defection Law and that MLA will be disqualified from his post.
