Karnataka: BJP Lawmakers Start Signature Campaign Against Bijapur MLA

Criticising ex-Minister and Bijapur MLA Basanagouda R Patil Yatnal's defamatory public statements concerning the Karnataka government, the BJP Legislators have initiated a signature campaign. Reportedly, despite receiving a show-cause notice, Yatnal openly envisaged the collapse of the state government under the current leadership. Claiming that Yatnal's "anti-party activities" may negatively impact future bypolls, the legislators intend to convey their recommendations to PM Narendra Modi, BJP chief JP Nadda and Amit Shah, requiring strict action.
