Shivamogga: Former minister and KPCC spokesman Kimmane Rathnakar has claimed that Yediyurapppa will quit the BJP and rebuild the Karnataka Janata Party (KJP) in the coming days.

Rathnakar said Addressing presspersons said, “The BJP central leadership is neglecting Yediyurappa again and he is very upset with it. The former CM will rejoin the KJP and the Basavaraj Bommai government will collapse soon.”

Yediyurappa had joined the KJP in 2012 after he was forced to resign in 2011 following serious allegations of corruption.

The KJP had managed to cut into the BJP’s votes, denting its prospects. Ahead of the Lok Sabha polls in 2014, Yediyurappa rejoined the BJP by merging the KJP with it.
