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, Jul 2: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Thursday accused BS Yediyurappa-led state government of "failure" to protect the citizens from coronavirus, stating that Karnataka was suffering due to lack of co-ordination in the cabinet.

In a series of tweets, the JD(S) leader slammed the state government for wasting their time in giving out contradictory statements regarding COVID-19 figures instead of learning lessons from the Kerala government.

"It is shocking to see COVID-19 patients being turned down by the hospitals due to lack of beds. The government has failed in its duty to protect the citizens. The CM and his cabinet colleagues wasted precious time in mere talking for the last three months. As the escalated Covid numbers stare them in the face, they are now helpless," Kumaraswamy wrote.

"Even when you have a proven model in Kerala government's success in Covid management, the ministers waste time in issuing contradictory statements and doing nothing. Karnataka suffers due to lack of co-ordination in the cabinet," he said.

Urging the government to act together, he said that if the government does not get its act together, the day is not far when Covid patients would be "condemned to die on the streets."

We are already seeing heart-wrenching stories of patients denied treatment," he added.

Kumaraswamy also appealed to the Karnataka government to consider the suggestions he had made earlier and not to indulge in party politics in these testing times.

"I appeal to the government to consider the suggestions I made earlier and act accordingly. This is not the time for party politics."
