Mangalore :  CM B. S. Yeddyurappa  said that, the BJP activists will hold state-wide agitation if the union government fails to recall Governor H. R. Bharadwaj within 24 hours. Speaking to the large number of BJP workers at Nehru Maidan on May 22, Sunday he said that this programme was part of the BJP’s 5-day state-wide protest campaign against the governor’s move.

The BJP is demanding the rejection of the governor’s recommendation of presidential rule in the state, and permission to conduct the legislative session from June 2, he said.CM questioned the reason with the senior congress leaders like M. Veerappa Moily and B. Janardhan Poojary for not witnessing any development in the twin districts during the Congress rule.

Criticizing the governor, he said that the governor is inefficient in taking his own decision and asked him to quit his post and go back to his destination. It is an insult for the people of the state, if governor continues his post.

He also said that the union government’s big scams like the Commonwealth Games scam and the 2G Spectrum scam have come into light. He declared that the Congress is no longer a national party and will be defeated by the BJP in future elections.

Flaying H. D. Deve Gowda, the former prime minister, he said that his party is dreaming of dissolving the BJP-led state government when the union government is still hesitating to accept the governor’s recommendations.

Stating that the BJP is proud to have completed 3 successful years in power, he said that it was quite challenging to withstand the conspiracies of the Opposition parties.MPs Nalin Kumar Kateel and D. V. Sadananda Gowda, Deputy Speaker N. Yogish Bhat, and District-in-charge Minister Krishna J. Palemar were also present.
