New Delhi, Jul 06 (ANI): After 11 MLAs from the Congress and JD(S) knocked the door of Karnataka Assembly Speaker amid reports of growing discontent within the ruling coalition, Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) national spokesperson GVL Narasimha Rao said the people of Karnataka have rejected the Congress-JD(S) coalition, adding that the BJP had won a massive mandate in Karnataka in the Lok Sabha elections despite the two parties contesting the polls together. “Congress-JD(S) coalition has been rejected by people of Karnataka. Despite their coalition in Lok Sabha polls, BJP won a massive mandate. It clearly shows the mood of people. MLAs certainly seem to be facing brunt of public anger against coalition,” Narasimha told ANI.
