Yeddyurappa: No dissidence in Karnataka BJP

Bangalore, April 13: Asserting that there was no dissidence in the Karnataka unit of BJP, Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa today said there were no differences in party and all minor issues have been solved.

“There is no dissidence at all. Whatever minor differences are there, have been resolved,” Yeddurappa told reporters here.

Yeddurappa’s statement comes in the wake of a visit by a team of rebels led by state unit BJP president K S Eswarappa to Delhi last month, demanding change in leadership of Yeddurappa who is facing allegations of corruption.

The Chief Minister said BJP general secretary Dharmendra Pradhan, in-charge of party affairs in Karnataka, would be visiting the city next week and no political significance should be attached to it.

Pradhan would discuss issues concerning strengthening of the party, Yeddyurappa said.
