The cold war within the BJP’s Karnataka unit has snowballed after senior MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal accused former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa of blackmailing the party’s high command to appoint his son B.Y. Vijayendra as the party’s state unit chief. Reported The News Minute.
After leveling the allegations on Monday night, the MLA said: “I don’t know why the high command got fearful. They talk about discipline. Are we slaves? Don’t we have strength? Even we have the support of the people.” Patil said.
“Yediyurappa had blackmailed central leaders saying that he won’t campaign for the 2025 Lok Sabha elections. He told the high command that he won’t move across the state and confine himself to the Shivamogga district.” Patil alleged.
