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.

Even he does not know what to tell.
A stupid will not say like this, because he is confessing what he did.

If this leader he so, what could be his chelas around him.

And at large what about his voters.- Now you know the situation of BJP, their supporters, if they win what will they do.

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.

Bengaluru, Jul 16: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Thursday hit out at state Health Minister B Sriramulu for stating that "only God can save Karnataka" from COVID-19 and asked him to resign from his post.

Speaking to media here in Bengaluru, Siddaramaiah said, "The government cannot say that we are helpless. Why is the government in power? You have power and you have money. It is your primary duty to serve the citizens of the state."

On being asked about Karnataka Health Minister's statement, the Congress leader said: "Let him resign and go out. God will help you only if you will put all your efforts."

Meanwhile, President of the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee DK Shivakumar tweeted "Karnataka's Health Minister saying 'Only God can save Karnataka' reflects poorly on @BSYBJP govt's ability to handle the Covid crisis. Why do we need such a government if they cannot tackle the pandemic?"

Sriramulu had said on Wednesday that either people should inculcate awareness or only God can save them from COVID-19.

"Who can save us at this time? It's either God or people should inculcate awareness in them. Congress leaders are involved in political mudslinging at this time. This is not fine and it will not help them in any way," the Minister had said.

"It is a crucial time, in the interest of the general public. I request all the Congress leaders not to indulge in loose talk regarding the issue, it leads to more panic situation among the general public. We are ready to adhere to any punishment if we did any wrong thing," he had added.

Mangaluru, June 11: The Saudi Arabia based Expertise Contracting Company, which is repatriating its employees to India and other countries, today allocated around 90 seats of one of its chartered flights to Kannadigas stranded in Saudi Arabia. 

The Gulf Air flight took off with around 175 passengers on board from Dammam International Airport around noon local time. It is expected to land at Mangaluru International Airport at around 7 p.m. Indian time. 

In fact the company had chartered the flights only to repatriate its employees. However, due to the lack of special flights under Vande Bharati Mission, the company decided to help the other stranded Kannadigas in Saudi Arabia, who had approached Saudi Kannadigas Humanity Forum for help. 

A company official said that around 2,000 employees from various countries in the Indian subcontinent are being repatriated, of which 1,665 are Indians.  Already hundreds of them have reached India, and hundreds are still waiting for repatriation. 

“We are grateful to Expertise for allowing to travel in the flight which the company had chartered to repatriate its own employees,” said one of the passengers before boarding the flight at the airport.  

Director of Expertise, KS Shaikh said the 20-year-old Expertise group, one of the largest conglomerates in the GCC operating in petrochemical and heavy equipment sectors, has more than 10,000 employees and their family members in the Gulf, mainly in Jubail, one of the largest industrial cities.

Of these, the company has chosen over 2,000 employees for the covid-related repatriations considering various emergencies. He said 12 chartered flights have been engaged to carry out the repatriation exercise to the Indian subcontinent.
