Padmanabha Prasannakumar, the founder of Karnataka Janata Party (KJP), which was formally launched by former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa during his year-long fight with BJP, has claimed that there is a threat to his life from Udupi-Chikkamagaluru BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje.

Addressing media persons in Bagalkot on Saturday, Padmanabha Prasannakumar said, Shobha Karandlaje had threatened him of dire consequences if he dares to release the CD of her marriage with Yeddyurappa in a secret ceremony at a Kerala temple.

“I am fearing for my life. I had submitted written requests to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and the then Home minister G Parameshwara seeking police protection. But nothing came out of it. I have lodged a complaint against Shobha Karandlaje at Vidhana Soudha police station alleging threat to my life from Shobha Karandlaje," teary-eyed Padmanabha said.

"Shobha Karandlaje and Yeddyurappa got married at Bhagavati Temple in Kerala. I have a CD of the marriage. If Chief Minister Siddaramaiah provides me the security, I will release the CD," KJP founder said.

He accused Shobha of misleading Yeddyurappa. "Had Yeddyurappa stayed in the KJP, the party would have come to power this time. Shobha made him leave the party. She will destroy Yeddyurappa's political career."

Replying to a query, Padmanabha Prasannakumar said that he would contest from Shikaripura and Teradal constituencies in the coming Assembly polls. and that the KJP would field candidates in all 224 constituencies.

Getting married is no problem. The worry is when two public figures who intend to gain high public office keep the marriage a secret. Bhakths will never understand these things.

Bengaluru, Jan 30: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who reached the national capital on Thursday, said he will discuss the much-awaited Ministry expansion with the BJP high command.

"It's been long that I visited Delhi. I will meet the party national president J P Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah and take their suggestions on the cabinet expansion," Yediyurappa told reporters.

The chief minister said he will also call on Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and discuss about development issues related to Karnataka.

Yediyurappa has been anxiously waiting for the high command's nod to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants.

Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in cabinet expansion, alleging that he was weak and that the administration had collapsed.

As the chief minister has already made it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on in the party for the remaining ministerial berths.

Currently, there are 18 Ministers, including the chief minister in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant.
