Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi on Friday amid speculation about changes in the state leadership and ministers.
After a short 20-minute meeting, the CM told reporters that they only discussed early implementation of certain pending state works. He did not directly answer questions about discussing changes in state leadership.
Repeated remarks by some disgruntled leaders within the state BJP targeting Yediyurappa and his family with accusations of corruption and interference in administration have embarrassed the party and the government. Another section of the party is demanding the replacement of Yediyurappa citing his age, he is 79.
