Mysuru: Dismayed over today’s political developments in the State that has threatened to rock the JD(S)-Congress Coalition Government, Narasimharaja MLA Tanveer Sait has said that MLAs were not trading commodities who could be purchased. Speaking to SOM this afternoon on reports that over a dozen MLAs from coalition would put in their resignations today, Tanveer, a Congress MLA, said that the people have elected the Legislators to serve them. But getting traded is an insult to the voters, he said and added that once elected, the Legislators should look forward only for serving the people and must not do things of this sort.
Pointing out that the majority of the Legislators who were reportedly quitting were followers of a leader who strongly advocates Social Justice, an indirect reference to former CM Siddharamaiah, Sait said these Legislators seems to have ditched their leader.
