KSE may lose post for tirade against BSY

Bengaluru: Senior leader K S Eshwarappa’s tirade against state BJP president B S Yeddyurappa may cost him the post of Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Council.

A section of MLCs in the Yeddyurappa camp, including D S Veeraiah, B J Puttaswamy, and Lehar Singh Siroya, is said to be working towards divesting Eshwarappa of the post he holds in the council, which is of the cabinet rank.

They are of the opinion that Eshwarappa is misusing his position by running a campaign against Yeddyurappa. Yeddyurappa told reporters in Bengaluru that several party MLCs were unhappy with the conduct and speech made by Eshwarappa at the convention held at Palace Grounds on Thursday.

“I hope he mends his ways. If he does not, then I cannot say where it will ultimately reach,” Yeddyurappa said. However, the state unit chief did not indicate whether he, too, was working towards removing Eshwarappa from the post.
