Stung by disgruntled leader Basanagouda Patil Yatnal’s allegations that the erstwhile BJP regime led by B.S. Yediyurappa was involved in irregularities to the tune of ₹40,000 crore during COVID times, the newly constituted BJP State office-bearers team is learnt to have sought action against him.
Sources in the party said that several office-bearers, who participated in their first meeting held on Wednesday, expressed concern that the senior leader’s remarks were embarrassing them as well as the party in public.
Some of them even maintained that such remarks were turning out to be politically advantageous for the Congress as they were showing the BJP in poor light.
