High Drama In Karnataka Assembly As Governor Walks Out Over Speech Controversy

This special report covers the unprecedented scenes inside the Karnataka Assembly where the Governor staged a walkout. The incident occurred during the customary address at the beginning of the session, where the Governor is expected to read a speech prepared by the state government. According to the report, 'There's been a big controversy over the mention of the G. Ramji Bill in the speech of the Governor, which he refused to, in fact, read out as is customary.' The Governor reportedly refused to read the speech as drafted due to the inclusion of the G. Ramji Bill. While initial indications suggested he might only skip that specific portion, the Governor ultimately exited the floor of the house. The walkout was accompanied by chaos as BJP and JDS MLAs also left the assembly. The Chief Minister was seen addressing the press following the incident, which highlights a direct confrontation between the Governor and the state government in Karnataka.
