Speaking to reporters, Kumaraswamy said, “The Congress party doesn’t have any respect for the constitution. Just a day after announcing INDIA, what they have done today in the Assembly is nothing but a murder of democracy. When the atrocities are questioned, the government must give an answer but instead it suppresses the voice by suspending the MLAs.”
He also said that the government is supposed to listen to the MLAs of other parties in the Assembly. “Congress claims itself as a grand old party but it doesn’t know basic rules of governance. The public servants were involved in a grand non-government event which was organised in a five-star hotel. When the topic is brought up, the MLAs are suspended. Is this Karnataka model?” asked the ex-CM.
