Shivamogga: Former Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa stated that he is not responsible for KS Eshwarappa's son losing the ticket.
He addressed the media after inspecting the arrangements for the upcoming event at Allama Prabhu Maidan in the city on Saturday, ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Shivamogga on March 18.
Responding to questions about Eshwarappa's potential displeasure, Yediyurappa remarked, "Eshwarappa might be upset, but I am confident that he will attend Prime Minister Narendra Modi's program. He has played a significant role in party building."
Yediyurappa expressed optimism that the situation would improve, noting efforts by state leaders to communicate with Eshwarappa. He clarified that ticket distribution is decided by the Central Election Committee, and Eshwarappa's perception is mistaken.
Regarding the Modi program in Kalaburagi, Yediyurappa said that the party's goal is to win all 28 constituencies in the state. He said that victory in 26 seats is confirmed and there might be some changes in 1-2 seats. "In Shivamogga, we have already won, what is left to see is only the margin," he added.
He also said that he was ready to address any needs as directed by party leaders after the Modi program concludes.
