Karnataka MLAs to get recliners for post-lunch naps during assembly session

UT Khader said that the move has been decided upon to prevent MLAs from being absent during assembly sessions.

The measure was taken to prevent absenteeism of MLAs after lunch as many would skip the proceedings of the House for a nap, a news agency PTI report mentioned.

The Karnataka assembly speaker said 15 recliners will be taken on rent and placed inside the Karnataka assembly from March 3 to March 21.
