BJP will repeat its UP performance in Karnataka: Yeddyurappa

Bagalkot: The State BJP President B S Yeddyurappa on Friday expressed confidence that the BJP would repeat the performance in Karnataka it had registered in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.

“Just 29 days remain for Assembly elections and the dream of Congress free Karnataka will be a reality,” he said at a party convention here.

He called upon the party workers and leaders not to waste even a minute and work hard for the party’s victory.

“Siddaramaiah is convinced of his defeat and hence he is planning to contest from two Assembly segments. He will be defeated in both the constituencies,” the former chief minister added.

Yeddyurappa compared the Congress party to a sinking ship. “The Congress won’t even gather 1000 people for Rahul Gandhi’s visits if Siddaramaiah is thrown out of power. The Congress divided the society to remain in power and its rule will end soon,” he said.

Regarding rebellion within BJP after it announced the first list of candidates, he said that the party was giving tickets based on surveys. There is no need for others to be disappointed if tickets are denied to them
