Congress government in Puducherry collapsed after the supporters walked out by the ruling coalition’s MLAs. The Puducherry Assembly met for a special session for a floor test of Narayanasamy five-year old government that was reduced to a minority following resignations by ruling dispensation members.
Moving a confidence vote for his government, Narayanasamy told the Assembly that his government had the majority and blamed former LG Kiran Bedi, the Central government and opposition for trying to topple his government.
“Those rejected by people cospired to topple our government but we stayed firm due to our resilience,” he said.
“Former LG Kiran Bedi and Central Government colluded with the Opposition and tried to topple the government. As our MLAs stayed united we managed to pull off the last 5 years. The Centre has betrayed the people of Puducherry by not granting funds we requested,” he said in the Assembly.
“We formed the government with the support of DMK and independent MLAs. After that, we faced various elections. We have won all the by-elections. It is clear that people of Puducherry trust us,” he added.
