Democracy finally won in Karnataka, says Sachin Pilot

Jaipur, May 19 (IANS): The resignation of newly-elected Karnataka Chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa on Saturday ahead of the floor test is a big victory of democracy in India, said Congress leader Sachin Pilot on Saturday.

"With this win, there also comes a defeat of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in its endeavour to form government through undemocratic means," said Pilot, the Rajasthan Pradesh Congress Committee chief.

"None of the parties got majority in the Karnataka elections. Eventually, Congress along with Janata Dal-United formed alliance to give the majority number. But overlooking this majority, Governor Vajubhai Vala invited Yeddyurappa to form the government which was highly undemocratic."

This proves how the BJP wants to rule the nation even by flouting constitutional values, Pilot added.

    The Governor should also resign. With Voters share of 38% for the Congress and 18 % for JDs totalling to 56 % the Governor should have called this coaliton to form the Govt. By swearing in Yedurappa and giving him 15 days to prove majority, both the BJP and the Governor lost the trust of the entire population of Karnataka.

    If BJP buys 10 or 11 MLAs for support than its called "Horse Trading"
    And Congress buyed the whole JDS by offering CM post as well as 17 cabinet berths and its called as DEMOCRACY!!!

    Prashant...so do you support buying MLA's for cash? Here there is no buying or selling of JDS MLA's. Two parties came together and forming a government. Good that Supreme Court intervened and asked Yediyurappa to prove his majority immediately and he didn't get much time to buy MLA's but he tried his best.
