Vijayendra dismisses allegations by Sudhakar, says latter lacks experience
Mysuru: Karnataka BJP President B.Y. Vijayendra has refuted allegations of his involvement in the appointment of the party’s Chikkaballapur district president, stating that the decision was taken by the party high command. Responding to criticism from BJP MLA Dr. K. Sudhakar, Vijayendra said that the selection process was managed by designated party leaders, who forwarded the recommendation to the central leadership.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru on Thursday, Vijayendra countered Sudhakar’s remarks, saying, "He lacks experience and information. Sudhakar did not call me directly; he had sent a message four days ago to speak with me. I could not meet him as I was in Delhi. I am not so big that I would refuse to take his call."

He also emphasized that he remains committed to the party despite any internal criticism. "I don’t know in what context Sudhakar criticized me, but I will tolerate all criticism for the party’s sake. No matter what is said, I have taken everything calmly and continue to learn from everyone. For me, the party remains the priority," he added.
The war of words between BJP leaders comes amid growing factionalism within the party, with Sudhakar expressing discontent over leadership decisions.
