"The prime minister should tender his resignation before the trust vote. We are 100 per cent sure that we will defeat the government in the trust vote. You will be surprised to see who will vote against the government," Hasan said.

Hasan, along two other rebel MPs Raj Narain Budholiya and Jai Prakash Rawat, met Mayawati on Sunday morning.
