Bangalore, May 25: The in-fights and problems in state BJP have reached its highest point with MP Basavangowda Yatnal criticizing deputy chief minister Yediyurappa of autocratic behaviour.
Speaking at a press conference at Bijapur on Wednesday May 24 evening he launched "Yediyurappa Hathao" campaign and set 15 days deadline to the party to suspend Yediyurappa. He criticized Yediyurappa of favouritism and said that the deputy CM has been doing to promote his political career and the political of those who are close to him. He warned that if the party does not take any disciplinary action against Yediyurappa, party workers themselves would do it.
Yatnal's remarks have hit BJP worst and have once again proved differences between the top leaders of the party have reached the pinnacle. Only a few days most of the MLAs had blown the whistle of dissension when Yediyurappa had planned to include Shobha Karandlaje in the state cabinet. The problem however was temporarily solved as the expansion of the cabinet was postponed.
But now once again dissidents have raised their voice. Since Yatnal is a MP any action against him can be taken only at the BJP national level. Knowing this well Yatnal has raised his voice and brought to fore the problems in the state BJP.
