BJP may announce Karnataka CM candidate in two days: Sources


Bengaluru, Jul 27 (IANS): After successfully unseating B.S. Yediyurappa from the post of the Karnataka Chief Minister, the high command is all set to take a call on appointing a successor. BJP party sources have said that a decision in this regard will be conveyed to the parliamentary board meeting scheduled to be held on Tuesday in New Delhi.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP chief J.P. Nadda, Union Ministers Amith Shah, Rajnath Singh, National Organising Secretary B.L. Santhosh and Karnataka in-charge Arun Singh are expected to hold a party parliamentary board meeting to discuss the new leadership, the sources said.

The sources also confirmed that the party would send observers to the state on Tuesday. Union Minister for Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal, senior leaders Dharmendra Pradhan and Bhupendra Yadav are likely to be sent as observers to the state.

The observers will hold a day-long meeting with the BJP legislators on Wednesday.

The senior leaders after collecting opinion from MLA's in the state, are likely to announce the name of the new Chief Minister at the legislature party meeting which is likely to be held on Thursday.

The BJP's state unit President Nalin Kumar Kateel and Arun Singh have already stated that the new Chief Minister will be selected in the parliamentary board meeting and the process will be completed in a span of two to three days.

It is said that the new Chief Minister will take oath by Thursday.

The high command, which has been treading a cautious path so far, is expected to speed up the process of anointing a new face aggressively, the sources said.

The major Veerashaiva-Lingayat seers have not reacted on the incident barring Dingaleshwara swamiji of Balehosur Mutt. There were no protests except in the hometown of Yediyurappa.

Immediately after the resignation of Yediyurappa, Nadda, Shah and Parliamentary Affairs and Mining minister Prahlad Joshi held a closed door meeting in Delhi to discuss the state developments.

    Yeddiyrappaji, please never get upset or frustrated over your biggest loss as CM. Life is more valuable than politics and dying for politics.

    All meetings discussions are just drama! They have someone in mind prior to asking Yudiarappa to resign. After spending couple of crores ( traveling/ meetings/ stay in hotels etc), they will announce the name.

    eventhough he was not an angel, his second term as CM was by and large good... he did not speak the language of hatred nor allowed communal rabids/low lifes to have say in government... substandards such as sriraamu (agent of ಖನಿಜ ದರೊಡೆಗಾರ family), ct ravi, santhosha etc.... two person high commode of the party wants a CM who should be communal rabid and ಬನಿಯಾ friendly... that is the reason he has been removed... if ripe old Atal Bihari could be pm of the country, why not an old CM for 1 or two years more...

    Yeddiyrappaji, after working hard and relentlessly to ensure BJP position (by hook or crook) you got your karmo ka fal. Finally you got most undeserving kick from behind. Enough is enough. "It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only one bad one to lose it." Aya Ram, gaya Ram.

    In BJP its only Modi and Shah who holds the remote control.. Our state leaders have no power.. Qualification of Ministers in BJP mainly is that they must have RSS background (like Shobha and Nalin), regardless of their ability.. Such people are given top positions in BJP. Petrol and all commodity prices are rising but no one is questioning!!??. In Udupi where is the development ??, all the young generation are running away to Bangalore, Mumbai or to Gulf in search of jobs...why not bringing IT/BT companies and other manufacturing companies??.
