Demand for the removal of Karnataka Chief Minister B. S. Yeddyurappa on Saturday emerged from within the BJP in the wake of the Lokayukta indicting him in his report on illegal mining in the state.
BJP vice-president and former in-charge of Karnataka Shanta Kumar has written a letter to party president Nitin Gadkari and senior leader L. K. Advani demanding that Yeddyurappa be removed immediately in the wake of his indictment by the Lokayukta.
