The Bharatiya Janata Party's all powerful Parliamentary Board is not able to decide the new incumbent CM for Karnataka, even though BS Yeddyurappa has resigned on Sunday after being indicted in the illegal mining report. Party observers Arun Jaitly and Rajnath Singh are still camping in Bangalore to finalize the formalities. The party's choice as new CM for the state is hovering around names of Sadananda Gowda and Jagadish Shettar. Finally, one among these two will be selected as new Chief Minister of Karnataka today.
According to sources, Tuesday turned out to be a hectic lobbying day for both Yeddyurappa and CM-probable Shettar's camp in wooing party MLAs to their side. While Yeddyurappa is firmly backing Gowda, state party president KS Eshwarappa is supporting Shettar's candidature. Even after three days of deliberations, the party has failed to come out with a consensus candidate.
Both camps claim they have more number of MLAs with them. While Shettar's group has made hotel Lalith Ashoka as their base, MLAs supporting Yeddyurappa are staying in hotel Chancery Pavilion. Not wanting to get recognised with any camp, observers including Dharmendra Pradhan have chosen to stay in hotel Le Meridian. All these star hotels are situated in the Central Business District (CBD). Discussion on choosing Yeddyurappa's successor went till late on Tuesday night. Yeddyurappa's emissaries - Murugesh R Nirani, Basavaraj Bommai and CM Udasi - came to the hotel where observers were staying and held talks with Singh and Eshwarappa.
