Ahead of Karnataka floor test, rebel Congress MLA Ramalinga Reddy says he will withdraw resignation, vote in favour of govt

Firstpost  

The survival of the Congress-JD government hangs precariously on the eve of the trust vote with the Supreme Court on Wednesday holding that the 15 rebel Congress-JD MLAs, who had moved it, cannot be compelled to participate in the proceedings of the ongoing Assembly session. Bengaluru: In some relief to the embattled coalition government in Karnataka, Congress MLA Ramalinga Reddy on Wednesday said he has decided to withdraw his resignation from the Assembly and will vote in favour of the trust vote to be sought by Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy. The party had also left him out while moving the Assembly Speaker for disqualification of the rebel MLAs, saying he was an “exception.” Reddy, too, had maintained he would remain in Congress and he has resigned only from the Assembly. Hours ahead of the floor test on Thursday, Reddy said he would withdraw his resignation letter submitted to the Speaker on 6 July.
