BS Yeddyurappa's message to BJP through tweet amid rumours of being removed from the post of CM

  • Karnataka CM BS Yediyurappa, on Wednesday, announced his decision to be removed from the post of CM.
  • This came after a meeting with PM Narendra Modi last week. He appealed to allies "not to indulge in protests and indiscipline".
  • Yediyurappa's tweet is being seen as a subtle gesture to the Centre, at a time when he is getting support from religious leaders and even a former Congress minister.
  • Yediyurappa, 78, tweeted, "Proud to be a loyal worker of BJP. It is an honor for me that I have served the party following high ideals."
  • He added, "I urge everyone to behave as per the ethos of the party and do not indulge in any such demonstration which will embarrass the party."
