Bengaluru, Apr 27: If some sources close to BJP's Yeddyurappa camp are to be believed, all is not well within the party's top leadership. The relation between the Yeddyurappa camp and others have soured especially after ticket denial to Yeddyurappa's son Vijayendra. Yeddyurappa is also reportedly angry over not allowing close aide MP Shobha Karandlaje to contest the assembly polls. He reportedly spoke against union minister Ananth Kumar and RSS leader Santosh for allegedly conspiring against his camp.
But, a new development in Bengaluru has demoralised some of the BJP cadre. Yeddyurappa did not go to the airport to receive party president Amit Shah, who arrived on Thursday April 26 night for the election campaign. On Friday morning Yeddyurappa reached the Chalukya Road residence of Amit Shah to brief him about the campaign details, but the meeting lasted only for ten minutes.
Later speaking to media persons, Yedyurappa said that the party president asked him to campaign in various other constituencies during next the few days, and told him that he need not be present at Modi-Shah rallies. Yeddyurappa did not express any disappointment on this instruction from Amit Shah, but political analysts feel that Amit Shah wants to keep Yeddyurappa out from campaigns where PM Modi is addressing rallies from May 1.
