 Mangalore, Jan 30, 2013: “Former chief minister  BS Yeddyurappa founded the KJP not with an objective of ruling the state,  but to realize his vision of   Suvarna Yuga in Karnataka,” claimed KJP State Secretary Ramachandra Baikampady.

 

 

He was speaking after inaugurating   a party convention wherein over 300 new members were inducted into the party at Town Hall on Jan 30, Wednesday. Ramachandra Baikampady  accused the present state  government of misleading the people  and  was all praise for the  government under Yeddyurappa’s chief ministership. He also claimed that the state was ranked first in development during the tenure of Yeddyurappa.

Ramachandra Baikampady further accused leaders like Ananthkumar and Kumaraswamy of  conspiring against the former CM. “Yeddyurappa had fully trusted Sadananda Gowda while handing over charge to him, but little was he aware of the conspiracy that worked behind the  deceptive smiling face,” he further said.

 KJP State Executive member Mariamma Thomas said  Yeddyurappa floated KJP for the sake of his followers and not owing to his desire for power. She alleged that the  former CM DV Sadananda Gowda as well as the present CM Shettar had shown no interest in continuing the welfare schemes initiated by Yeddyurappa including Bhagyalakshmi  and  Sandhya Suraksha schemes.

Yeddy was the first CM to sanction a grant of Rs 300 crore to MCC for developmental works, she said and added such works would continue if he comes to power again.

 Many activists from other parties like Yogesh Shetty Jeppu, Jyothika Jain, Lawrence D’Souza and many others joined the party.

KJP leaders like Kamaraj Rai, Ravindra Shetty, Azeez Baikampady, Shivprasad, Manoj Kumar, Kiran Shetty, Hameed Kudroli and others were present.
