New Delhi, April 8, 2013
The BJP on Monday suspended two of its MPs from Karnataka, including former chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa's son B.Y. Raghavendra, for anti-party activities. The other MP to be suspended was Shiv Kumar Udasi, considered close to Yeddyurappa, who left the BJP last year to float his own party KJP after the saffron party refused to accept his demand for his reinstatement as Karnataka chief minister. Earlier in the day, BJP president announced that Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar would continue to be the party's chief ministerial candidate in the Karnataka Assembly polls. He was addressing a Bangalore rally through video conferencing after his aircraft developed some snag and he had to return midway. The BJP chief also said that veteran leader L.K. Advani and Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi would be the party's star campaigners in Karnataka. He, along with Leaders of Opposition in Parliament - Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley - was to visit Bangalore to begin the party's election campaign. Yeddyurappa had to resign as the chief minister over corruption charges against him and his kin. source:http://indiatoday.intoday.in |
