BBMP Opposition leaders from the BP faction along with the party MLAs spent all night at the civic agency's council hall, demanding a roll back of the property tax.

"We want to discuss this issue in another meeting and we want a complete roll back," said Opposition leader Padmanabh Reddy at 11 a.m on Saturday. He had been admitted to the hospital last night after he had fainted during her agitation inside the council hall which saw an unprecedented outbreak of violence among the councillors. For now, they have left the premises.
