More Lingayat seers meet CM; some of them have mellowed their stand
Senior BJP leader and Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Minister K.S. Eshwarappa on Thursday took on the seers who had publicly warned that the BJP would bite the dust if Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa was replaced. “It was MLAs from Lingayat community who were launching an offensive against Mr. Yediyurappa. Why did the seers not advise their community MLAs to mend fences then?” he asked, speaking to reporters. Mr. Eshwarappa also expressed happiness over the Chief Minister’s statement that he would abide by whatever decision was taken by the party high command over leadership change.More Related News
