BJP will get more 200 votes and Yediyurappa will be next CM. This is already finalised and Yediyurappa has been told this by one Mawlwi who was asked by him to do some black magic at his home. Yediyurappa should camp in Bangalore and do the preparation for oath taking ceremony. Yediyurappa is the beloved leader of Karnata people as he did lots of good things to people while he was CM. He was sent to jail due to wrong allegation though he was innocent. He is very pious and religious person and always thinks for good things to people. He respects people from all religions and hence people for all religion respect and love him. Karnataka will be number one state in India if Yediyurappa comes to power. Only he can solve Kaveri + Mhadevi + Belgaum + Kasargod issues.
The last wish of life which cannot fulfil.
