HUBLI: The Congress has received support from an unexpected quarter: Former chief minister and now KJP president BS Yeddyurappa said he is ready to join hands with the party to dismiss the Jagadish Shettar government.
"BJP has no moral right to continue. Shettar's is nothing but a coalition government run by theBJP and KJP. I will support the Congress which is seeking the government's dismissal," Yeddyurappa said. On Saturday, the Congress submitted a memorandum to governor HR Bhardwaj on the issue.
Reacting to former chief minister DV Sadananda Gowda's statement that the BJP is clean at present because some tainted leaders, including Yeddyurappa, have left the party, the latter said: "Let KS Eshwarappa and Gowda build the party and bring it to power again with their clean image."
Also reacting to chief minister Jagadish Shettar's statement that party made him CM, not any individual, Yeddyurappa maintained that all the people in the state know who made him CM. "If he feels he became CM due to party wishes, I wish him good luck," he said.
Yeddyurappa said he's not aware why the BJP is not taking any action against his supporters in the partyhe will not make any effort to topple Shettar's government.
"I challenge the BJP president to take action against MLAs who shared the dais with me in the recent Haveri convention I don't know why BJP is not taking action against our supporters, instead giving misleading statements of taking action," the former CM said.
