New Delhi: R. Ashok, who was a right-hand man of ex-CM B.S. Yeddyurappa and later fell out on serious differences, but still, serves under CM DVS Gowda now with same portfolios of home national president on Thursday, in the context of a leadership controversy is state BJP between Eshwarappa and Yeddyurappa, with DVS Gowda as their forlorn child in the dispute, as CM.

Ashok refused to speak in public about what transpired between him and Gadkari at Delhi. He merely told the party chief about the achievements of his Government.

He bowed to Yeddyurappa as the supreme leader of BJP in state, but should be no confusion, because “we all go by High Command decisions”, he added.

It only showed BJP ministers and MLA’s have fallen between two stools, since yeddy fell off his chair.
