"People and god will not forgive me for neglecting the flood victims and people who stood by me," he said in an interview to Suvarna TV channel.
In Delhi, he read out a long prepared note in which he claimed that the crisis in Karnataka had been resolved. Within hours, the rebel Reddy group told the media that Yeddyurappa is lying and that there has been no compromise.
"Everything has been resolved....I am thankful to the party leadership for reposing faith in me. I will take everyone into confidence," Yeddyurappa said just before he went for a pilgrimage to the Vaishno Devi shrine in Jammu.
"The BJP government in Karnataka will complete its full term," he said.
But soon after, Tourism Minister Janardhana Reddy, the mining baron who is heading the rebel group, told the media that the so-called compromise is just a figment of imagination and that no deal has been ironed out. "We want nothing short of the removal of the Chief Minister," he said.
On Friday, the BJP central leadership had ironed out a compromise formula that would have entailed a cabinet reshuffle and shunting out of some key figures in the Yeddyurappa ministry, including Panchayat Raj minister Shobha Karandlaje. In turn, the Reddys were to drop their demand for the removal of Yeddyurappa.
Even a threat by the BJP central leadership did not yield any results. The BJP leaders reportedly had asked the Reddy brothers and their supporters to resolve the political crisis in 24 hours or face the elections.
According to sources, the BJP top brass , which met to find a compromise formula, categorically rejected the Reddy brothers demand for the head of Chief Minister Yeddyurappa.
The BJP had also toyed with the idea of creating a `super-CM' by forming a committee that will supervise decision making in Karnataka. According to the plan, national BJP leader Arun Jaitley will head the committee comprising Ananth Kumar, Speaker Jagadish Shettar, K S Eshwarappa, Yeddyurappa, Santosh (BJPs organising secretary) and the state BJP president the person who succeeds B Sadananda Gowda. Even this has not satisfied the Reddy brothers.
all are in politics. nothing great to listen such dramas. as long as universe remain such things will contineu to happen. It is told universal peace becomes real then the whole world is full of good samaritans. we need not be a political leader to serve society.
You are Ravinda kamareddy. All reddy's are cheats and scoundrals including you.
Why bring congress and Sonia into the picture? Even hon. Jaitley has not blamed the
congress. Next elections in Ktaka - Congres will come with thumping majority and you
Kamareddy lick your own ass...
Ravindra, good that you expose what sort of members and ministers are promoted by BJP. It is all for convenience... use their money and throw them now...
Why is it that all of you have this sonia fear.. all problems those outside the BJP and those within the BJP the fault is Sonia...
First advice, set your house in order then you may get some success outside... change from the inside...
Five me one good reason why Yeddi should remain as CM, apart from the fact that more than 52 MLAs have shown anti-Yeddi preference, for what reason do you (and the national leaders of BJP) say he should stay? Of course apart also from the agenda of knocking of all the money of the flood victims..
And let me also tell you that the stalemate is also because the Reddy's have proven to have 52+ MLA support... so why is Yeddi holding the chair so tightly... second time he is crying for the chair...
So BJP is collapsed, it is the organisational culture of telling lies... Advani got caught badly during the elections and when they got Yeshwant sigh out... Yeddi and the national leadership kept telling lies the whole of last week that the issue is solved today, this evening, tomorrow morning blah blah blah... obvious that the central leadership are also involved in the hanky panky of sharing the money collected from corporate and ordinary citizens of Karnataka... 1,000 crores + more promised is not a joke... damn the victims damn the people, damn the government... this is what it is all about.. also as some one has raised, it is not women that is the problem, but rumour has it that it is about badi ghar and choti ghar...
BJP cannot continue to keep fooling the people...
