Amid reports about threat to the Congress-JD(S) government ahead of the budget session, Congress' Karnataka chief Dinesh Gundu Rao Monday said action would be taken against legislators if they violate the whip.
"If whip is violated, action will be taken in accordance with law.
There is no second talk about it, but Im confident that all 80 MLAs will be on our side," Rao said.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru, he said "I'm confident that all MLAs will be on our side, few MLAs because of BJPs allurements or pressure or fear- two or three of them (MLAs) are bit quiet, but they too are now aware what BJP is (like)."
