Bengaluru: Karnataka BJP president Vijayendra Yediyurappa on Saturday said that Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a crucial meeting with state leaders to assess the political situation in Karnataka and guide the party’s future course, with a strong emphasis on internal unity.

Following the meeting, Vijayendra said the central message from the leadership was clear: “This is the time for us to set aside differences and come together. Only when we unite will our workers feel respected, and the people of the state will place their trust back in us.”

Framing this as a defining moment for the state BJP, Vijayendra added, “We have wholeheartedly accepted this call for unity. The only way forward is by rising above internal differences and presenting a strong, united front.”

He also pointed to growing public dissatisfaction with the Congress government, stating that since coming to power, it has functioned in a divisive manner and that its policies have adversely impacted farmers and the poor. “We raised these concerns with the Union Home Minister and shared our observations from the ground,” he said.

Highlighting the role of the BJP as a responsible opposition, Vijayendra noted, “In a democracy, the opposition has a duty greater than the ruling party. Over the last five to six months, we have consistently exposed the failures of the Congress government. Our efforts were well received, and we remain committed to this role.”

On the possibility of former minister KS Eshwarappa returning to the party, Vijayendra acknowledged internal discussions among some leaders. “Yes, some have recognised past mistakes and are considering returning. However, no official discussion has taken place at either the state or national level. Any such move will be taken only after consulting national leaders and through the proper party framework,” he clarified.

Vijayendra said by stating that the party’s primary focus now is on rebuilding trust, energizing the cadre, and preparing for future challenges with discipline and collective purpose.
