The Monsoon Session of the Karnataka Assembly began on Thursday with the Congress training its guns on the ruling BJP over the violence in Mysore that left three people dead.
Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah tabled an adjournment motion to discuss the violence and the governments failure to prevent it. The BJP said they were ready for a discussion,though not under an adjournment motion. In the middle of the debate,BJP legislator H S Shankarlinge Gowda accused Congresss Tanveer Sait of having a role in the violence. Even as the Speaker ordered expunging of the remarks,Congress MLAs marched into the well of House asking Gowda to prove his charges or tender an apology. Though the House was adjourned for the afternoon,uproarious scenes continued even when it was reconvened.
