'BJP govt will fall soon due to internal differences'

{image-dharam singh_28082008.jpg news.oneindia.in}Gulbarga, Aug 28: Former Chief Minister N Dharam Singh on Thursday, Aug 28 said that differences that have erupted between 'Mine Lords' and the Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa will lead to the fall of the BJP government soon. Addressing a press conference here, he said that the Reddy brothers -- Janardhan and Karunakara, who are the ministers in the Yeddyurappa ministry had strongly objected the induction of Mr Umesh Katti into the cabinet.

Despite their objection the Chief Minister inducted him into the cabinet which had further widened the gap between them, he said. "As many as 15 BJP MLAs approached the Assembly Speaker to submit their resignation to protest the induction of new comers into the cabinet ignoring the senior BJP leaders," he said. It is clearly indicating that an internal political crisis prevailed within the party which will lead to the downfall of the government, Mr Singh predicted. He criticised that which the state was reeling under floods and drought conditions, the Chief Minister and other leaders went to America, which is reflecting their indifferent attitude in attending people's problems.

Meanwhile, talking to reporters KPCC president Mallikharjun Kharge hoped that no congress party MLA would desert the party henceforth. He criticised the Chief Minister for going to the USA while the state was hit by floods and drought.
