Legislative Turmoil: MLA Kage's Resignation Threats Shake Karnataka

Congress MLA Bharamgouda Alagouda Kage has threatened to resign from the Karnataka Assembly, citing an 'administrative collapse' in the state. Kage voices significant frustration over the lack of development in Kagwad, supporting fellow MLA B R Patil's allegations of corruption and stagnation in public works.

Bharamgouda Alagouda Kage, a Congress MLA from Kagwad, has sent shockwaves through the Karnataka political landscape by threatening resignation. Citing an 'administrative collapse,' Kage expressed dissatisfaction over two-year delays in promised development initiatives.

In a dialogue with reporters in Belagavi, Kage criticized the state's administration, claiming no progress in infrastructural projects, aligning himself with fellow Congress legislator B R Patil's corruption concerns. Patil specifically pointed to malpractices in government housing schemes.

Minister BZ Zameer Ahmed Khan dismissed allegations, affirming grants are special uses. Meanwhile, BJP President B Y Vijayendra commented on the turmoil, condemning the Congress's governance as corrupt. With potential resignations looming, Karnataka's political stability appears increasingly precarious.
