Mangalore, November 26: The Congress has reportedly given green signal to the inclusion of 15 BJP MLAs into the party including ministers Anand Asnotikar and CP Yogeshwar.

30 MLAs from the BJP had submitted applications to join Congress including 5 ministers. The Congress leaders after scanning those applications chose 15 names and sent them for approval of the central unit.

The central unit has given the green signal for all other recommended names except Rajugowda and Bachegowda.

The move has been made keeping electoral benefits in mind owing to the upcoming Assembly polls. Chosen ministers may resign from the BJP in the first week of December, it is said.
