Mysuru: Brushing off the reports of former Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa’s son B.Y. Vijayendra gaining popularity in Varuna constituency, Chief Minster Siddharamaiah has said that Vijayendra will not make any impact at Varuna. “Ask Vijayendra’s father to contest in Varuna...,” a visibly upset Siddharamaiah told reporters yesterday when asked about the candidature of Vijayendra from Varuna where the CM is planning to field his son Dr. Yathindra Siddharamaiah.
The CM was speaking to media persons near his Ramakrishnanagar residence. Seeking to dismiss Vijayendra as an “outsider” and “irrelevant” unlike him (CM) or his son, Siddharamaiah, said: “Has he descended from heaven (forcing me to worry)? He is most irrelevant in my constituency.” He chided the media for asking “useless questions” on what he thinks about Vijayendra’s candidature.
