Scam-hit Yeddyurappa Eyes National Role in BJP


Scam-hit Yeddyurappa Eyes National Role in BJP

Shikaripura, Dec 22 (IANS): Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa, facing charges of favouring his kin with prime land, hopes to play a national role in building up the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after further strengthening it in his state.

"The party's wish is that BJP should return to power in Karnataka and also at the centre (New Delhi). After securing 150 assembly seats (out of the 225 in Karnataka) in the next elections (due in 2013), I will move to national politics," Yeddyurappa told reporters here.

Yeddyurappa represents Shikaripura, about 330 km from Bangalore, in the state assembly.

Yeddyurappa was confident that the BJP would do well in the Dec 26 and Dec 31 taluka (sub-district) and zilla (district) panchayat polls in the state despite corruption charges against him and some of his ministers.

"This (panchayat) elections will further strengthen BJP's foundation in the state and will help us win 150 seats in the assembly polls," he claimed.

Yeddyurappa dismissed the Congress party as a "sinking ship" and the Janata Dal-Secular (JD-S) as "thande-makkala paksha" (father and sons party) that have no prospects of coming to power in the next 10 years.

JD-S is headed by former prime minister H.D. Deve Gowda and while one of his sons is state president, the other is leader of the party in the assembly.

Yeddyurappa maintained that the Congress and JD-S were levelling baseless allegations against him. "These charges have had no impact on the voters as I found during my extensive campaigning across the state for the upcoming polls," he asserted.

He also indirectly ticked off Governor H.R. Bhardwaj, who has said that he was not happy with the chief minister's reply to his letters on land scams and illegal iron ore mining in the state.

"I cannot satisfy everybody and there is no need also," Yeddyurappa said.

"I have replied to the governor. If he is not satisfied, I cannot help it," the chief minister said.

Bhardwaj had sought the "true picture" from Yeddyurappa regarding allegations against him and the action he had taken against the Reddy brothers, who are also ministers, for the alleged illegal iron ore mining.

"I am not satisfied with the replies. I may write another letter to him," Bhardwaj had told reporters in Bangalore on Monday.

    Mr Ronald Vaz, If Yeddyurappa does not accept your suggestion in taking our dear friend, Nagesh Mamu as his secretary, I wonder what will happen to the poor fellow. Who will he start praising? Will he turn to Ananth Kumar or Bellary mining lords? Nagesh Mamu can hope for better rewards if he switches loyalties to Reddy Brothers! Jai Ho.

    Yes Yeddy. Go by all means. What will you do? Try to beat Raja's record and perhaps have some six-G (mind you not sex-ji) after the 2G in which Pramod Mahajan/Arun Shourie and 3G of Raja's SPECTRUM? If you go early, Karnataka might be better!

    Advani was waiting to be PM and was called PM IN WAITING. Now Yeddy can also be the same. CM job is over and LOOTING also over. Now PM job is pending. Yeddy is the High Command now and he can take any decisions he requires as no one dares to question him, either Gadkari, Sushma or Advani as they are also Corrupt. How they can question Yeddy ?

    Nagesh Nayak Bangalore is very happy Yeddy is going to join National Role. Nahesh Babu you will get atleast Tea Boy job in Yeddy's office. Yeddy needs people like you. I think Nagesh should be made the Congress president as he is very much against Soniaji. God alone knows what hatred he has against Sonia ? Sonia is doing a very good job Nagesh Nayak and need not need your Certificate. Chor persons like you is supporting the CM is a sad thing. How much Land Yeddy gave you ? Sonia is respected by everyone in India but Yeddy has no repect in his own Home Town in Karnataka. Now he is planning to go to National Role. Karnataka he looted and now he will Loot India. So Nagesh you can also join Yeddy. All the Best NAGESH NAYAK, BANGALORE.

    This is a very good idea. You always think in a positve way. There is nothing in Karnataka. Definetly you will get PM post as you are much senior and everyone is in your control. Why late? act immediately, don't wait time is running. Once you become PM then think about international politics. Start working now - Make Mr. Nagesh Nayak your Secretary in chief. Believe me you will never find man like Nagesh Mamu in the entire world. Jai hoooooooooooooooooo Yediyurappa, Jai ho M a m u

    Ho ho. Joke of the Century. But if Yeddy shifts to national BJP, it would be very best. Because, BJP is losing charm already. If Yeddy goes there, then in no time BJP will collapse with the entry of National No. 1 Corrupt hero Yeddy. Yeddy is enough to destroy the so called 'different' party.

    Yeddy has reached a stage that he has become immune to all criticism good or bad. We know that in spite clear proof of corruption he is desperately clinging to his seat. Power has gone to his head. Power, position and money. He has bought the party high command and he can even buy as many MLAs as he wants. No wonder, he can always command majority. He can surely eye national role in BJP and can talk of anything. Tomorrow, he might talk of becoming the Prime Minister.

    High hopes Yeddy is having. Now he is planning for National Role. Karnataka Role is over. Now he will go to Delhi for Looting as Ramesh says. In Delhi he will go and make some TAMASHA as the present BJP Leaders are doing by boycotting Parliment, shouting, throwing chairs, pulling the Mike from Speaker and so on. Yeddy one more Culprit will join the lot. May be Yeddy is planning to be the PM after some time and that is why BJP Leaders want Dr. Manmohan Singh to resign.

    Yeddy has to reply or answer to the questions asked by Governor. Its his duty. Yeddy did not give satisfactory answers to the Governor and he is not happy. CM is saying he cannot satisfy everone. What it means ? I am sure Yeddy's days have numbered. He is eyeing on Natioanl Politics and waiting for Two more Years to switch to Delhi. That means Yeddy will LOOT KARNATAKA for Two more years and after he made enough Money he will go to Delhi. Nice Logic. After all CHOR is a CHOR. Yeddy is showing his true colours by giving such Statements. KARNATAKA he made SATYNAS and now if he goes toDelhi the same he will do. Shameless person. For power anything Yeddy will do. If nor KARNATAKA, DELHI. But he is still greedy of POWER.

    Govt is encouraging corruption by not taking action against the corrupt cabinet ministers including the Chief Minister.
    Land grabbing, illegal mining and favouring the telecom cartel by the senior politicians and the ministers in the centre and the state are an embarrassing moment for us in the world arena. RTI and Lokayukta should get bigger role to expose mega-corruption in the Govt level. Now a day politics is becomes a profession to amass illegal wealth without any fear and with full authority to exploit the power in their hand. What a shame.

    Yediurappa has shown that what Congress and JDs did in 60 years, he could do in just two years. It is nothing but looting the state thoroughly. People of Karnataka had great hope in BJP when it was elected. But very soon it showed its true face and people are disappointed. If he moves to the center, it will be a disgrace to the party.

    As all politicians Yeddy is no exception. He too wishes to make as much money till he is in office nd then he cares a damn about what happens to the state of Karnataka.
    All previous chief ministers nd politicians have looted the state exchequer so he too will love to have his booty nd then he wud not mind to resign or even not get elected. He knows his time is limited so make hay while the sun shines. And he very well knows no politicians have been convicted. That is the state of not only BJP but all congress nd other politicians as well. Who as a politician has not made fast bucks.
    All sail in the same boat. Our indian politicians have no shame. They r there not to server the people but loot the people. God only save Karnataka nd India.
