Karnataka crisis: 2 more Congress MLAs resign, is BJP behind the nataka?

With two more Congress MLAs, Sudhakar and MTB Nagaraj, resigning today, the political crisis in Karnataka has further deepened.

The fresh resignations have taken the total number to 16 -- 13 from Congress MLAs and 3 from JDS.

Meanwhile, earlier in the day, rebel MLAs refused to meet Congress leader DK Shivakumar, who had flown from Bengaluru today morning. The MLAs remained inside the Mumbai hotel while Shivakumar was barred entry by Mumbai Police.

So, as the nataka continues, we ask is BJP behind the crisis?
