Karnataka BJP MLAs To Meet High Command Over Chief Minister Facing Criticism

MP Renukacharya said BJP MLAs will meet the high command and demand for the expulsion of those criticising Karnataka Chief MInister BS Yediyurappa.

Amid continued attacks by some within the BJP in Karnataka against Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, his political secretary M P Renukacharya on Thursday said the party MLAs will meet the high command in Delhi and demand for their expulsion. The Honnali MLA also challenged Mr Yediyurappa's detractors to resign and face the election fresh, as he credited the Lingayat strongman for the party's growth and its coming to power in the state. "Is (Mr) Yediyurappa a ready-made food? He has built and nurtured this party. Criticising him is the same as criticising the BJP," Mr Renukacharya said. Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, he said Mr Yediyurappa is not involved in any corruption or anything.
