Cong Suspends K’taka MLA Roshan Baig for ‘Anti-Party’ Activities

Roshan Baig, a MLA from Shivajinagar, had recently called AICC general secretary KC Venugopal a “buffoon.”

The Congress on Tuesday, 18 June, suspended rebel MLA R Roshan Baig from the party with immediate effect for "anti-party" activities.

Hitting out at Congress leaders for the party's performance in the Lok Sabha polls, Baig, a MLA from Shivajinagar, had recently held Siddaramaiah's "arrogance" and KPCC President Dinesh Gundu Rao's "immaturity" responsible for the "flop show."

He also called AICC general secretary KC Venugopal a “buffoon.”
