Talking to PTI, Yediyurappa said his inclusion in the BJP Parliamentary Board, the party’s apex decision-making body, has ”sent a good message not only in Karnataka but across south India.” Thanking Prime Minister Modi and the party’s central leadership, Yediyurappa said he would continue to his activities and ”from the first week of September, will travel across the state, visit all districts to strengthen BJP and the hands of the state leadership.” The former Karnataka chief minister, however, made it clear that he is not going to contest the elections.
