BJP Karnataka chief Vijayendra holds meeting with state minister Jarkiholi
Karnataka state BJP president B Y Vijayendra and Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar's brother D K Suresh called on state minister Satish Jarkiholi separately on Monday, triggering political speculation.
These meetings took place in the context of several political interactions usually not seen among the leaders after Lokayukta police registered a case against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in the MUDA scam.
These meetings triggered speculation as if they were held to work out a leadership change in Vidhana Soudha.
The BJP leader told reporters that he, as an MLA from Shikaripura, met Jarkiholi to get some public works done in his constituency.
When asked if he had any political discussion with the minister, especially on the possibility of changing the chief minister, Vijayendra said that the BJP had been demanding Siddaramaiah to resign and pave the way for a transparent investigation into MUDA scam and the Karnataka Valmiki Scheduled Tribes Development Corporation scam.
