Karnataka BJP to hold executive meet on Friday

BENGALURU: Having been so shut and yet thus far from energy, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday will grasp its first state executive committee assembly after the 2018 meeting polls.
While the chief committee assembly is also routine affair, once in 3 months, all eyes will probably be at the rumoured trade within the BJP state president put up.

While the party claims there is not any proposal to ask former chief minister and state BJP talisman B S Yeddyurappa from stepping down, it's being speculated that ahead of the 2019 elections the central leadership might want to get the caste combination proper for the aim of winning maximum selection of seats within the Parliamentary hustings.

Frontrunners for the put up seem to be a Kuruba, aN SC and a Vokkaliga.

Former deputy chief minister and once a vociferous opponent of Yeddyurappa, K S Eshwarappa is being projected as one of the vital contenders due to his “proximity” and “hob nobbing” with the RSS leaders like BL Santosh and others.

However, for Eshwarappa, his neighborhood and his home constituency might turn out to be a hinderance.

With the Congress already having former CM Siddaramaiah as its legislature party chief, Eshwarappa turning into the state president won't give any benefit to the party.

Furthermore, with Yeddyurappa because the chief of opposition and representing Shivamogga district, another chief from the same district won't augment well for the BJP to unfold its base.

At the other end, names of Mahadevpura MLA Arvind Limbavali and firebrand Chikkamagalur MLA C T Ravi also are doing the rounds inside of party circles.

While Limbavali has been an lively ABVP chief in his formative years and an organisational secretary for the BJP until 2006, Ravi has been at the leading edge of the core Hindutva ideology of the party and has a stronghold within the communally sensitive district of Chikkamagalur.

Both the MLAs have shut proximity with the nationwide leadership like Amit Shah and Sushma Swaraj, and are identified for their organisational skills with the RSS having a “likeing” in opposition to them.


The dark horse within the party might once again be a Lingayat like Basavaraj Bommai or Umesh Katti, with the central leadership taking into consideration consolidation in their primary votebank ahead of 2019 polls.


Meanwhile, the state executive committee may be more likely to decide upon the chief of opposition within the upper area with former minister Kota Srinivas Poojari, Raghunath Rao Malkhapure and Ayunur Manjunath being the entrance runners. However, KB Shanappa, a senior BJP chief and previous union minister is also a compromise candidate for the party which has handiest 20 MLCs out of the 75 member sturdy area.


But in keeping with a party employee, any choice at the two selections will require the blessings of Yeddyurappa.


“Ultimately, the BJP talisman could have the final say within the present political scenario where the BJP cannot antagonise Yeddyurappa with the Parliamentary polls so shut,” mentioned the partyworker.
