Congress leader Ahmed Patel today sought to know from the Lok Sabha secretariat the status of resignations of BJP MPs from Karnataka -- B S Yeddyurappa and B Sreeramulu -- after their election to the state legislature.
New Delhi, May 27 (PTI) Congress leader Ahmed Patel today sought to know from the Lok Sabha secretariat the status of resignations of BJP MPs from Karnataka -- B S Yeddyurappa and B Sreeramulu -- after their election to the state legislature.
Patel said that while their resignations were accepted immediately, the Lok Sabha website did not show the seats represented by them as vacant.
“It's been over a week since 2 BJP MPs resigned from their Lok Sabha membership to take part in Karnataka assembly proceedings. Their resignation was accepted instantly but Lok Sabha website still doesn't reflect correct number of vacancies. Can Secretariat clarify what is status?” he asked in a tweet.
Uploading a screenshot of Lok Sabha website showing a list of the vacant constituencies as on 12 pm May 27, he said, "It doesn't reflect resignations of 2 BJP MP's which was accepted on 17th May, 2018 (sic)."
