Mysuru: The rift between BJP State President and former Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa and Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council and former Deputy Chief Minister K.S. Eshwarappa came out in the open this morning at the State BJP Executive meeting. Yeddyurappa did not even look at Eshwarappa as the latter greeted him on the dais.
The State Executive meeting began at around 11 am and Yeddyurappa and Union Minister H.N. Ananthkumar and other leaders were sitting on the dais. At this point, Eshwarappa walked on the dais and greeted Yeddyurappa with folded hands. While Ananthkumar, who was seated next to Yeddyurappa, got up from his seat to greet Eshwarappa, Yeddyurappa did not even exchange glances with his bête noire. He was busy reading a book.
