Porngate: Disqualify 3 former ministers, says Labour Minister

Union Labour Minister M Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday urged Karnataka assembly Speaker KG Bopaiah to immediately disqualify three former ministers, who were caught on camera allegedly watching a porn clipping on a mobile phone during assembly proceedings earlier this month.

"The trio had already admitted their crime of watching porn clippings during Assembly session ... I don't think there is a need for House probe into the issue," the senior Congress leader told reporters here.

Laxman Savadi, CC Patil and Krishna Palemar resigned as ministers a day after the incident on February seven.
