JOIN USChief Minister B S Yeddyurappa said BJP National General Secretary and MP Ananth Kumar has been striving to defuse the tension triggered by the internecine fights among the State BJP leaders and his name should not be dragged into the controversy.
Speaking to the media at the Jindal airport here on Monday, the chief minister said efforts are on to resolve the conflict under Ananth Kumar’s leadership.
“Ananth Kumar, ministers G Janardhan Reddy, G Karunakar Reddy and Sriramulu and myself are all one. In politics, there may be some minor differences of opinion. The present situation has cropped up due to some misunderstanding. I have nothing against the Reddy brothers and the issue would be sorted out in a day or two by our senior national leaders,” he said.
He reiterated that the focus should be on attending to relief works in the flood-hit areas. Union Home Minister P Chidambaram has promised to help the State in rehabilitating the flood-affected and Union Law Minister M Veerappa Moily will come to the State on November 3 to discuss the issue, he added.
