Bengaluru, Nov 14: The state BJP leadership has not invited its senior leader K?S?Eshwarappa to Monday's ground-breaking ceremony to its mega convention of Other Backward Classes, scheduled to be held at Palace Grounds in Bengaluru on November 27.

eshwarappaNames of many BJP?leaders, including Union ministers Ananth Kumar and D?V?Sadananda Gowda and party MLC?B?J?Puttaswamy, have been mentioned in the invitation that was given to the media here on Sunday.

However, Eshwarappa, who considers himself as the voice of OBCs in the BJP, has not been invited for the Monday's event. When contacted, he said, “I am unaware of the programme. I have no invitation.”

Eshwarappa, who is leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council, and state BJP?president B?S Yeddyurappa are at loggerheads ever since the former questioned certain appointments made to various wings of the state unit of the party.

Mahila Morcha chief

Yeddyurappa on Sunday appointed former MLC?Bharati Shetty as the party's state Mahila Morcha president. According to an announcement made by the BJP on Sunday, she will replace the incumbent Bharati Mugdum.
