Resort politics returned to haunt the Congress-JDS coalition government in Karnataka with ten MLAs, who submitted their resignation, leaving for Mumbai Saturday.
These MLAs are likely to stay in a Hotel there, sources close to them said.
They left by a chartered flight, they said.
The coalition government plunged into a crisis on Saturday with 13 MLAs of the alliance submitting their resignation to the Speaker.
in a release, BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa said "Me and my party have nothing to do with the developments in other rival parties.
I have heard through media that Congress and JD(S) legislators have resigned from their assembly seats."
The BJP state chief maintained "One thing I can say that people are not ready for elections. Elections are a burden on state exchequer."
