Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India] March 21 (ANI): Karnataka Minister MB Patil on Friday reacted to the suspension of 18 Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLAs from the state Assembly, calling the suspension 100 per cent justified.

'Totally unbecoming of Members to behave like that...They did all possible violations in the Assembly...This (suspension) is 100 per cent justified,' said Patil.

The Karnataka Speaker on Friday suspended 18 BJP MLAs for six months for disrupting proceedings of the Assembly. Dramatic scenes unfolded in the House and visuals showed House marshals picking up BJP MLAs and carrying them outside the House.

A Bill was tabled by Karnataka Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister HK Patil.

Ruckus erupted in the Assembly as BJP MLAs entered the Well of the House and also tore and threw papers at the Speaker UT Khader's chair. The Bill granting four per cent reservation to minorities including Muslims in contract work was passed by Karnataka Assembly.

Earlier today, an uproar followed in the State Assembly after Karnataka Cooperation Minister KN Rajanna's allegation of a honey trap attempt was made on him.

BJP legislators raised loud slogans 'down, down' as some members held CDs in their hands claiming they had proof of the alleged honey trap. They then stormed into the well of the house even as CM Siddaramaiah was speaking.

R Ashoka, BJP MLA and Leader of Opposition in the Assembly said, 'It is not the issue of one party, it's the biggest conspiracy against legislators who are working for the people and some are doing this (honey trap) with clear hidden agenda.'

Speaking in the house Chief Minister Siddaramaiah defended his government and said there was no question of protecting anyone in the Honey Trap.

The BJP leaders were demanding a judicial inquiry, but CM Siddaramiah said that G Parmeshwara had already responded to the allegations made by KN Rajanna, and had set up an enquiry. (ANI)
