Forget the past, now I am a completely changed person: Yeddyurappa

Bengaluru, Apr 13: BS Yeddyurappa, who is known as the only former chief minister of Karnataka to be arrested on corruption charges, now calls himself a “completely changed person.”

yeddyIn an interview, Mr Yeddyurappa, who is set to take over as the Bharatiya Janata Party State unit president for the fourth time on April 14, said: “I am not the same old Yeddyurappa. I have learnt from the past experiences and mistakes. My focus now is to take everybody in the party together.”

The 73-year-old Shivamogga MP declared that his single-point agenda was to ensure that the BJP returned to power in the State in the 2018 Assembly elections with an absolute majority by winning 150 seats in the 224-member House. He wants to achieve this by infusing “aggression” into the party campaigns to effectively take on the Congress government.

Replying to a question on his departure from the BJP in the past, Mr Yeddyurappa said: “I committed the mistake of quitting the party for which I will apologise to the people of Karnataka. Despite this, the Central leadership reposed faith in me by giving this position. This has enhanced my political spirit.”

“They had made the decision long ago to appoint me, considering the political situation in Karnataka which is witnessing maladministration by the Congress government. They, however, had to wait as the term of the then president Pralhad Joshi ended only about 15 days ago,” he said.

Asked about his immediate priority, Mr Yeddyurappa said, he has to strengthen the party organisation to ensure it wins 150 seats in the next Assembly elections from the present 44. “It is a tough task no doubt, but definitely achievable if serious efforts are made. Of course, it is not as tough as the situation in 2008 when we came to power for the first time in Karnataka. This is because the Congress government headed by Siddaramaiah here has already become unpopular owing to its corrupt practices and apathetic attitude,” he added.

He went on to claim that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party national president Amit Shah have declared me as the chief ministerial candidate for 2018 polls. He also said that there is no need for any political alliance with JD(S) as BJP is confident of getting absolute majority on our own.

Looks like BJP is indirectly supporting Siddhu to get next term as Karnataka Chief Minister. In Central BJP got power because of Congress Corruption, who make win Modi, does not mean that they will support Yeddy like corrupted person. Congress Zindabad.

Please do not Insult the DOG by comparing it with YEDDI.
DOGS are much better than him.

Bajarangi Job less Gundas ask your yeddi about his illegal relationship with shobha. It is called Yeddi's love jihad. Shame on you people still backing him for all his Mistakes.
He will completely change only after his DEATH.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa on Friday launched 'Sapthapadi', a mass marriage program in Bengaluru.

The state authorities will provide a mangalsutra worth Rs 40,000 and Rs 5,000 to the groom. They will also give Rs 10,000 to the bride after marriage.

The state government has also informed that the department has shortlisted some temples where the mass marriages will be held.

Yediyurappa also confirmed that the government will help communities like Muslim and Christians also to organise mass marriage as per their respective rituals.

According to the state government guidelines, issued last year in November, both parents of the couple should attend the ceremony if the duo wants to avail benefits of this offer but those who want to marry without their parent's permission do not stand a chance here.

Also, those wanting a love marriage will not be able to reap the benefits of the scheme. The plan is to conduct about 1,000 marriages in 90-100 temples.

The couples wanting to tie the knot are expected to register themselves 30 days before the scheduled date in the temple. Following which a list will be prepared.

Bengaluru, Jan 25: To address the grievances of the Industrialists, over the issue of acquisition of land, the state government have plans to dilute the Land Reforms Act, Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, said here on Saturday.

Speaking to the media here, on his visit to the World Economic Forum, Davos, recently he said that 'the visit was fruitful and ends with satisfactory note by procuring promises from several Industrial houses to investment in Karnataka'.

Stating that during his five-day stay at Davos, he had met several Industries heads on the sidelines of the summit, and had an interactive meeting with them, Chief Minister said that 'the event had helped us to present our state Karnataka, to convince them about the prevailing industry-friendly environment'.

He said that he had met several heads of global companies, including Arcelor Mittal, Kirloskar, MAHINDRA, Bharat Forge, 2000 Watt, general electrical, Dassault, Dalmia, Lulu Group, Volvo, Nova Nosdik and Domeco.

'The interaction with the corporate heads was encouraging and more investment is expected to flow into Karnataka, in the fields of Mining, Power, Agriculture, Pharma, Education, and Industries.'

Informing that the main grouse expressed by the Industrialists about the bottlenecks being faced in the Land Reforms Act to procure land, he said that 'To make ease of conversion of Agricultural land we have plans to bring amendment and it would be both win-win situation to both Farmers as well as Industries.'

'We have promised them to remove all hurdles, which comes in the way of acquiring land to set up industries, and we have promised to rectify all the administrative problems within a month or two and legal problems in the next couple of months by amending existing laws.'

'We have also plans to present a new Industrial policy in the coming budget and roll out a comprehensive and investor-friendly law', he further said.

Replying to questions, Chief Minister said that 'all those investment proposals which got clearance at the High-Level Clearance Committee would automatically considered as ‘deemed permission’ and start the process of acquisition of land'.

'TheWorldEconomic Forum Summit had also served us as a platform to invite Industrialists to take part in the Karnataka Global Investors Meet scheduled to be held in November this year', he added.
