The high command has indicated to the CM that he will need to step down before the Parliament commences on Monday where the BJP is seeking stringent action in the 2G scam.
Yeddyurappa however appaears not to have heeded to this ultimatum and continues to send feelers to the high command to give him another chance. Some of his supoorters in New Delhi continue to coax BJP chief Nithin Gadkari to give the CM another chance. The high command however has said that he will have to go and would be reinstated once his name is cleared in the land scam.
In any event of the CM stepping down he would have certain conditions which the high command will have to abide by some conditions which include letting Yeddyurappa choose his sucessor and an assurance in writing that he would be reinstated as CM once
he is cleared of corruption charges.
Yeddyurappa has sent his trusted cabinet minister Dr V S Acharya to New Delhi to pacify the high command. Acharya has been asked to convey to the high command that Yeddyurappa would step down only if they also removed other corrupt ministers from the cabinet.
Apart from seeking the removal of the Reddy brothers from the cabinet, Yeddyurappa also wants an assurance from the central leadership that Ananth Kumar should be kept away from Karnataka politics.
The deadlock however continued with the CM refusing to step down. The high command is however adamant that Yeddyurappa steps down before the Parliament commences today. The party has also authorised BJP chief Nitin Gadkari to take a final call on the matter.
