Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurppa urged the Lingayat seers to stop holding conventions in his support to make him continue at the top post. Yediyurppa said he would take a decision on his resignation based on BJP central leadership's direction.

Amid speculations over his resignation from the top post, Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Sunday urged the Lingayat seers to stop holding conventions in his support and said he would take a decision based on BJP central leadership's direction. BS Yediyurappa was in Belgaum to take stock of the flood situation there due to heavy rains. "None of the Swmaijis should hold conventions. We have confidence in PM Modi, Amit Shah and JP Nadda," said Yediyurappa, who belongs from the Lingayat community.
