Mysuru, Jan 15: Karnataka BJP president and former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa is highly confident of forming a BJP government in the state soon, according a former minister and present MLA from Mysuru region.

“It is possible to topple the JD(S)-Congress coalition government. But, as on Tuesday afternoon, nothing is concrete. If nothing happens by evening, it is over,” the MLA was quoted as saying by a newspaper on condition of anonymity.

“Yesterday, we had left for New Delhi in the noon. We had plans to visit the ailing seer of Siddaganga mutt Shivakumara Swami. But suddenly, we were diverted to the resort. Our routine is dull. The resort is in a village. Even if we go out, there is nothing. I am engaged in monitoring the pending and ongoing works in my constituency and district. Some of the MLAs are just chatting and are whiling away their time,” he said.

He said that the stay is comfortable, but confinement is difficult even under comforts. “It is unfortunate that the BJP could not come to power despite emerging as the single largest party. But, the hardships the MLAs have to undergo to come to power is worrisome. It is going to be tight rope balancing, even if Yeddyurappa becomes chief minister,” he said.

Yudiyurappa , now 76, if he wait five years to complete means 81, even if BJP gets majority after five years his health condition may not allow to lead the govt.... probably this created more disturbance to his mind to do all these dramas.

Bengaluru, Jun 27: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Saturday emphasised on giving a new dimension to the city by strengthening the infrastructure and improving various other sectors including health and housing.

He was speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony of the 108-feet-tall bronze statue of Kempe Gowda, the founder of Bengaluru, at the Kempegowda International Airport near here. The statue would be built at a cost of Rs 66 crore in one-and-half years.

Yediyurappa said Bengaluru has earned the fame of Garden City and Silicon Valley of India. Noting that the state capital was one of the fastest-growing cities in the world and internationally acclaimed hub of information technology and biotechnology, he said, "We need to give a new dimension to this city and strengthen the infrastructure. We have to focus on health, housing, pollution control, traffic management. Our government has taken various measures to develop the city," the chief minister said.

On Kempe Gowda, Yediyurappa said though the city did not have a perennial river, he built hundreds of lakes and interconnected them. His water management reflects on his foresightedness, he added.

"Kempambudhi, Dharmambudhi, Sampaniram and Halasuru lake are among the major lakes gifted to the people of Bengaluru. He had set up the markets called Chickpet, Akkipet, Balepet, Kumbarpet, are still the major trade hubs," Yediyurappa said.

Former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda, Union Minister of State for Railways Suresh Angadi, deputy chief ministers Govind Karjol, Dr C N Ashwath Narayan, Laxman Savadi and many other ministers were present on the occasion. The event was organised on the 511th birth anniversary of Kempe Gowda. Kempe Gowda was a chieftain of Vijayanagara dynasty who founded Bengaluru around 550 years ago.
