K'taka CM Yediyurappa calls off July 26 legislative party meet

Hindustan Times  

Amid speculations of a leadership change in Karnataka, chief minister BS Yediyurappa is learnt to have cancelled the legislative party meeting scheduled on July 26, on the second year of the anniversary of his government. Two leaders aware of the developments said that instead of the legislative party meeting, Yediyurappa has now called a dinner meeting of all BJP legislators in the state on Sunday. There is no clarity on whether the decision to call the legislative party meeting was taken by Yediyurappa or the BJP’s central leadership. Veera Someshwara Shivacharya Swami, one of the pontiffs who met the chief minister on Tuesday, has said any move to replace Yediyurappa will have big consequences for the BJP.
