CM Kumaraswamy openly tells in the Vidhana Sabha that BJP calling and offering 40-50 crs to MLAs.

JD(S) MLA Srinivas Gowda stands up & names three BJP MLAs who came to his house with 5 crores cash which he rejected. Says they still call him & offer 30 crs.

BJP remains silent.

Three BJP leaders named by JDS MLA in the floor of the house for bribing 5 crores cash and offering 30 crores.

1) Ashwath Narayan, Malleshwaram MLA

2) Vishwanath, Yelahanka MLA

3) CP Yogeshwar, Former Channapatna MLA

Speaker says, let all the truth come out. Let people know.

JDS MLA Mahesh says Vishwanath, Hunsur JDS MLA, who is a rebel MLA sitting in Mumbai, told him a few weeks ago that BJP had offered to clear his loans of 28 crores.

Wonder how much these MLAs were sold for now? Apparently it is Rs. 50 crores 😲

How shameless can BJP get? They didn't even protest when two MLAs sitting in the house were directly accused by a JDS MLA of carrying 5 crores cash to his house to lure him.

In fact, one MLA @drashwathcn is sitting and laughing. He is making the citizens of Malleshwaram proud?!

HDK quotes the Arunachal 2016 Judgement by SC & states that the Governor doesn't have the right to interfere now in the proceedings of the house.

@krishnabgowda talks about Article 175 which SC Constitutional Bench says restricts the discretionary powers of the governor.

Senior-most MLA @RV_Deshpande says "I have been in this house for 33 years, but never ever had any governor given a direction after the vote of confidence had been moved.

The trust vote is now the property of the house and comes under Speaker's ambit"

CM HDK quotes another instance from history

"When PM Vajpayee faced vote of confidence in 1999, the debate went on for 10 days. Why is the BJP so eager now not to debate when the opposition then was willing to?"

Will @BJP4Karnataka answer?

#KarnatakaFloorTest

"We have complete confidence in winning the trust vote.

If BJP is confident as well, why is it opposing debate on such an important issue?

We want to expose BJP's #OperationKamala. Mr. Amit Shah is directly involved in destabilizing govts": @dineshgrao

CM HDK says he has got a second letter from the Governor which mentions horse trading.

Questions why the Governor has woken up to horse trading now and not ten days ago when BJP shifted MLAs to Mumbai.

HDK shares visual proof to speaker showing BJP's involvement.

KPCC President @dineshgrao has moved the SC seeking clarification and direction about the interim order which whittles down the power of a political party to issue a whip to its legislators.

Refers to the Kihoto Holohan v Zachillhu judgement and 10th schedule provisions.

"The MLAs in Mumbai are our friends. We have been together for 30-40 years in political life. They are being held in captivity by the BJP and are being threatened literally at gunpoint to do what they are doing": @DKShivakumar

#KarnatakaFloorTest

"MLA Shrimant Patil and BJP leader Laxman Savadi went together to Mumbai. The ticket proves it.

Governor is suddenly talking about Horse Trading. Request you(speaker) to allow us to debate horse trading": @PriyankKharge
