Dramatic developments taking place in Karnataka politics. In the backdrop of resort politics now 2 independent MLAs have withdrawn support from the govt. MLAs H Nagesh and R Shankar have pulled out from the Cong-JD(s) alliance dealing a blow to the govt that is already battling to keep its flock together. Congress remained defiant after the withdrawals and asserted that nothing can threaten the K'taka govt. Meanwhile, they piled allegations on the BJP for attempting to poach its MLAs.
