Karnataka Assembly Stalls Fourth Day as BJP Insists on Dropping B Nagendra

The Karnataka Legislative Assembly has remained non‑functional for the fourth consecutive day, with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) refusing to allow the house to sit until its demand to drop legislator B Nagendra is satisfied.

The BJP’s demand has become the focal point of negotiations between the ruling coalition and opposition parties, halting all scheduled debates and the passage of pending bills.

Opposition leaders have warned that the prolonged impasse could affect governance and have urged the BJP to withdraw its demand or seek a compromise.

Assembly officials have indicated that the house may reconvene once the issue is resolved, but no specific timeline has been provided.
