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.

Bellary, Jan 4: A BJP MLA has apparently threatened 'minority' Muslims against participating in anti-CAA protests, saying that opposing the new Citizenship Act will not be good for them and they will have to face serious repercussions.

"It's just a caution for those who are protesting against the CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act). We are 80 per cent and you (Muslims) are 18 per cent. Imagine what will happen if we take charge," MLA Somashekar Reddy told a gathering here on Friday.

"Beware of the majority when you live in this country. This is our country. If you want to live here, you will have to, like the Australian Prime Minister said, follow the country's traditions," he added.

He said: "So, I warn you that CAA and NRC are made by Modi and Amith Shah. If you will go against these acts, it won't be good."

Continuing to spew venom, the MLA further said, "If you wish, you can go to Pakistan. We don't have any issues. Intentionally, we would not send you."

He said that the community should live in harmony with Hindus. "If you will act as enemies, we should also react like enemies," he said.

Earlier, Bengaluru BJP MP Tejaswi Surya reportedly called CAA opposers as "puncturewalas".

The nation has been witnessing massive protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC). But Prime Minister Narendra Modi has specifically stated that the NRC was never discussed.

Reddy,

 

This is not your father's country nor any other's father's country.

Eh desh kisika baap ka naheen hai.

 

All have sacrificed to liberate this nation.

Your  Gundagiri will not succeed. See soon the result.

 

To goto Pakistan, we  have choice to go or not. But you don't have choice.

 

Your brain also black, we don't what about the color of your heart.

 

Jai Bharath, Jai all countries
