Baig, who had turned hostile after not getting a ticket to contest the just-concluded Lok Sabha polls, called Congress general secretary KC Venugopal a 'buffoon' and blamed Siddaramaiah for the collapse of the Congress - JD(S) in the state.

For his anti-party attitude, the Congress served him a show-cause notice seeking an explanation from him within a week.

In Karnataka, BJP has won 25 seats out of 28 while only two seats were won by Congress - JD(S) alliance and one seat by an independent candidate.
