Bangalore: Mutton biryani for lunch, singing of folk songs, small talk and siestas marked the second day of the Congress and Janata Dal-Secular Legislators' sit-in in the Karnataka Assembly on Tuesday to demand a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into illegal mining in the state.
Most of the 74 Congress and 27 JD-S members stayed overnight in the wood-panelled Assembly, after a vegetarian or non-vegetarian dinner according to their tastes and returned to the House after freshening up at their houses or at the Legislators home to resume the sit-in. Breakfast was a choice between idlis and dosas.
Unlike Monday night, when some members had dinner in the House, meals on Tuesday were outside the Assembly House, either in the lobby or in party offices as Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa accused the protesters of "lowering the dignity of the House by eating non-vegetarian food there".
Congress leaders denied they had dinner in the House on Monday night. "We ate in the lobby, not inside the House," insisted Leader of Opposition Siddaramiah.
