That is why I have sent it to the Speaker and have also mentioned the cases of Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka where such decisions have come from the Supreme Court that resignations should be accepted immediately. If the MLAs personally submit their resignations to the Speaker, it should be accepted. Court decisions have been brought to his attention. However, he can only give advice on this subject. They do not have any constitutional rights. If there is dissatisfaction with the decision of the Assembly Speaker then they can go to court. He is satisfied that the Speaker has also sent him a reply, in which he has said some things. But looking at the court’s decisions, he believes that these resignations should be accepted.
