Speaker K R Ramesh Kumar in no hurry to accept resignations

The political crisis in Karnataka entered a new phase on Thursday, with Speaker K R Ramesh Kumar showing no mood to take an early decision on the resignation of 16 MLAs of the ruling Congress and JD-S on the eve of the Assembly session where a showdown could be expected.
Kumar, who met 13 rebel Congress MLAs on Thursday evening after the Supreme Court asked him to do so in the morning, made it clear that he was not rushing into accepting the resignations as he wanted to be "satisfied" which would require a detailed scrutiny.
