Bangaluru, Sept 19: Sandalwood superstar Upendra, who had to move out of newly formed Karnataka Pragnyavantara Janata Paksha (KPJP) around six months ago, on Tuesday officially launched his ‘own’ Uttama Prajaakeeya Party (UPP) to mark his birth day.

As the acronym of the new political party – UPP – is similar to his nickname ‘Uppi’ and sensing the possibility of it turning out to be more about Upendra himself, the actor in a cinematic fashion let the ‘I’ burn out to say the party belonged to everyone.

Though the launch was a low-profile affair, the occasion coincided with his birthday. The party’s manifesto is based on concept of ART (Accountability, Responsibility, Transparency) of governance.

Mr. Upendra has launched UPP when the polls to the Lok Sabha are just eight months away. There was speculation that UPP will field its candidates.

Rumours are doing rounds that Upendra might contest from the Bengaluru South constituency in 2019 Lok Sabha polls as UPP candidate. However, he is yet to take a call, sources said.

“We have spent a lot of time in getting the party registered and launching it officially. We have not yet decided on whether to contest in Lok Sabha polls,” said Upendra adding that he was not power hungry.

Bengaluru, Aug 3: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee working president Satish Jarakiholi on Sunday said that as per the party sources, state chief minister BS Yediyurappa has got only six months' time and there are different teams working against Yediyurappa in their party.

The BJP high command has decided to bring down Yediyurappa, Jarakhioli said. He added, "Yediyurappa had asked BJP high command to appoint him Chief Minister for six months and due to corona, his period has been extended. But now their own party sources have revealed that he has got only another six months."

While addressing the issue of different statements by BJP leaders and ministership aspirants after five MLCs were nominated, Jarakiholi said "Yediyurappa followers are not actual followers. BJP high command has already decided to bring down Yediyurappa as per their own party sources."

While speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, he said there are teams formed in the names of deputy CMs and there are many who are working in their party against Yediyurappa.

He also said that it's up to their party what they think about Yediyurappa's tenure, whether they keep him as CM or remove him. Being in Opposition, now Congress is only working on strengthening the party, he said.
