BANGALORE: The BJP's crisis in Karnataka seems
to have worsened with some party MPs and MLAs coming out in
support of sacked chief minister BS Yeddyurappa and asking
party high command to reconsider his resignation.
According to Times Now, 75 MLAs and 19 MPs have come out in
support of Yeddyurappa and have asked him not to resign.
Senior BJP leaders Arun Jaitley and Rajnath Singh are in
Bangalore and have spoken to Yeddyurappa. |

The central leaders are here to elect a new leader amid
reports that Yeddyurappa is pressing hard for having a
say in the choice of his successor.
Yeddyurappa reluctantly agreed to resign on Thursday
following the party high command's decision in the wake
of his severe indictment by the Lokayukta in the illegal
mining scam. He said he will be officially submitting
his resignation to Governor HR Bharadwaj on July 31.
DB Chandre Gowda, an MP said, "Karnataka BJP MPs are of
the unanimous opinion that Yeddyurappa should not
resign.
He is not an individual. He is an institution as CM. He
should have taken the opinion of all elected
representatives. We appeal to the high command to
reconsider."
Gowda also said, "The Lokayukta report has lost its
sanctity--it leaked."
