Mangalore, December 19: Undeterred by the recent setbacks, scam-tainted former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa on Monday declared in the home district of incumbent CM DV Sadananda Gowda, that he was ready to take up the post again if his party's central leadership wanted him to lead the state.

“I had quit the CM post bowing to the party's demand and now I am prepared to take any responsibility bestowed by the party”, said the charismatic BJP leader, who participated in ongoing Vajapeya Somayaga at Nandagokula Goshale on Narahari hillock near Kalladka on the outskirts of the city for the second time in two weeks on Monday along with his confidante Shobha Karandlaje.

Speaking to media persons on the sidelines of yaga, he also reiterated that he would take up the CM's mantle if given a chance.

“I met BJP national leaders during my recent visit to New Delhi. They are convinced of my capabilities to lead the party and the state. If the central leadership wants me to become the CM again, I will do that," Mr Yeddyurappa said.

It can be recalled that last week, as many as 17 MPs submitted a memorandum to BJP national leaders L K Advani and Nitin Gadkari, seeking the CM's post for MR Yeddyurappa.

The MPs, owing allegiance to the first ever BJP CM of Karnataka, have been vociferous in their demand.

Though Yeddyurappa returned empty-handed from his Delhi trip, he was not disappointed.

"Apparently, Gadkari told him to wait for a month before any decision on reappointing him as the CM can be taken. He is confident of returning as the CM," his aides contended.

It is also said that Mr Yeddyurappa has been mounting pressure on the BJP central leadership from all quarters for the CM's post.

According to him, he is still worthy of returning as the CM because there are many leaders in the BJP, who are facing far more serious charges than him.

On Sunday the former CM at Dharmasthala had clarified that he would not quit the BJP if he was not reappointed as CM. "I am a loyal BJP worker. If the BJP wants me to bring back former minister B. Sriramulu to the party, I will take up that task also," he added.

Mysuru, Jan 27: Chief minister BS Yediyurappa on Sunday refused to field questions on the state’s finances, merely saying his budget on March 5 will do the talking. The question came in the wake of Siddaramaiah, leader of the opposition, claiming recently that the state’s coffers were dry and its finances were in the doldrums.

However, Yediyurappa insisted the state’s finances were sound and it will be better once promises made by the business community during his trip to Davos turn into concrete investment.

“I will present the budget for 2020-21 on March 5. People will then know about the state’s financial position,” Yediyurappa said during a visit to Suttur Mutt on Sunday. “I will answer Siddaramaiah’s comments during the forthcoming budget session of the state legislature. The Davos meet I attended will benefit the state immensely. It will bring huge investments that will promote industry and agriculture growth and various job-generation activities.”
