Panaji, Jan 11: Actress-turned BJP-leader Smriti Irani has said that former Karnataka chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa has been taken back into the saffron party to strengthen it ahead of the Lok Sabha election.

Irani is in Goa to oversee preparations for the Bharatiya Janata Party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's rally Sunday.

"Whatever needs to be done to strengthen the party will be done," Irani told the media, when asked why a leader indicted in scandals has been taken back into the party.

Yeddyurappa, a leader of the powerful Lingayat community, quit the BJP ahead of the last assembly polls after he was dropped as chief minister by the BJP amid charges of corruption.

It could be recalled here that scam-tainted Yeddyurappa had formed Karnataka Janata Party in protest against BJP's decision to not to continue him as the chief minister of Karnataka.
