According to sources, during the meeting, Yediyurappa told the Home Minister that the new-found unity in Karnataka Congress unit could prove costly for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming assembly elections.

Yediyurappa also stressed on the “support” extended by the people toward the celebration of Opposition leader Siddaramaiah’s 75th birthday held on August 3 in Davanagere, stating “the message of unity given out by the Congress” should be an alarm bell to the ruling BJP.

According to sources, Yediyurappa told Shah “if counter-strategy is not formulated and put forth before the people, it could be an uphill task for the BJP to attain power in Karnataka”.
