BENGALURU: The entire Karnataka ministry barring chief minister HD Kumaraswamy resigned on Monday in a bid to save the Congress-JD (S) government even as it received another jolt when the two independents who were inducted just a month ago withdrew support to the coalition.The two independents flew to Mumbai to join the 13 rebel Congress-JD(S) MLAs, who put cold water on the coalition’s attempts to save the government by rejecting the offer of ministerial berths.Karnataka political crisis: Follow live updatesThe MLAs flew to Goa from Mumbai in the evening. In a day of fast-paced developments, the numbers tilted in favour of BJP with independent MLAs H Nagesh and R Shankar withdrawing support to the government.The coalition’s strength in the 224-member assembly has now come down to 103. The opposition BJP now has a support of 107 MLAs. The magic number after the resignation of 13 Congress-JD (S) MLAs from the assembly on Saturday came down to 106 from 113 earlier.Ironically, it was the appointment of independent MLAs H Nagesh and R Shankar as ministers that triggered the ongoing dissidence in Congress and JD(S). The lone BSP member, N Mahesh, is also likely to extend support to BJP, which has 105 members in the assembly.The fate of the government now hinges on the decision of speaker KR Ramesh Kumar, who will take up the matter on Tuesday. Should he accept the resignations and the numbers remain as they are, the government will be in trouble. BJP has already urged the speaker to take a call without any delay.Kumaraswamy, who returned from US on Sunday, put up a brave face in Vidhana Soudha where he stationed himself after meeting Congress leaders.The CM met Congress legislature party leader Siddaramaiah at the residence of former deputy CM G Parameshwara. “Those who want to come back can do so. All our ministers have resigned voluntarily to facilitate a reshuffle,” Siddaramaiah said.However, JD(S) rebel MLA AH Vishwanath, who is among the 13 MLAs who flew to Goa, said: “We all came out opposing the style of functioning of the government. Siddaramaiah, thank you. Nobody wants to be a minister.”Until Monday night, no rebel MLA responded positively to the offer of ministries though some Congress leaders claimed that four or five rebel MLAs would return to the ruling camp by Tuesday morning. Some Congress insiders, however, believe more resignations will follow.Congress and JD(S) are also said to be exploring legal options to save the government and punish rebel MLAs. Parameshwara, along with former cabinet colleagues M B Patil and Krishna Byregowda, consulted legal experts. They are likely to move a petition before the speaker on Tuesday seeking disqualification of the rebel MLAs under provisions of the anti-defection law.
