Karnataka's new CM, Gowda or Shettar?
Senior BJP leaders Arun Jaitley and Rajnath Singh will leave for Bangalore on Tuesday evening to select the candidate for the new CM's post in Karnataka. The Karnataka BJP legislative party is likely to meet on Wednesday, Aug 3 even as the party is still striving to reach a consensus on the next chief minister candidate.
Yeddyurappa submitted his resignation to the Governor on Sunday after pressure from the BJP following his indictment in the Karnataka Lokayukta report on illegal mining. However, he remains to be the caretaker Chief Minister till the next chief minister is appointed.
