New Delhi, Nov 5 The meeting between BJP central
leaders and beleaguered Karnataka Chief Minister B S
Yeddyurappa here today on the leadership crisis in the state
remained inconclusive but the leaders are likely to meet
again.
BJP President Rajnath Singh held a meeting with senior
party leaders Sushma Swaraj, Arun Jaitley, M Venkaiah Naidu
and Ananth Kumar this morning and Yeddyurappa joined them
later.
While leaving the meeting venue, the Chief Minister said
he will meet Singh and other senior leaders again.
"Talks are still on," Naidu said, after the meeting.
Naidu and Swaraj, whom the dissidents met earlier, tried
to convince Yeddyurappa on certain demands of the Reddy
brothers but sources said no consensus could be reached.
While Yeddyurappa has sent overtures to the dissident camp
and even met Speaker Jagadish Shettar, who is their chief
ministerial candidate, the Reddy brothers have refused to meet
him. - (Agencies)
