Mysore/Raichur, May 21 (PTI) Hitting the streets, ruling BJP in Karnataka today launched its campaign seeking Governor H R Bhardwaj's recall and rejection of his report recommending dismissal of the party government with Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa himself leading the agitation in Raichur.
Addressing the "hatao Governor, Bacchao Karnataka" (remove Governor, save Karnataka) rally in Raichur, Yeddyurappa mounted a blistering attack on Bhardwaj accusing him of trying to rule the state by dismissing the elected government.
"The Governor wanted to rule the state for six months. A few months ago, he suggested to me to dissolve the Assembly so that he will get six months to rule. Bhardwaj also told me that after the elections, BJP may come back to power," he told the gathering stepping up his attack on Bhardwaj.
