B.Y. Vijayendra, the BJP State president, emphasized that former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa is a leader for all communities, not just the Lingayats. He highlighted Yediyurappa's contributions to the state's development during his four terms as Chief Minister. Vijayendra criticized the State Budget, claiming it favors certain communities and accused Chief Minister Siddaramaiah of creating division. He stated that the BJP will protest against what they see as unconstitutional provisions in the budget. Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar defended the budget, explaining that it extends existing reservations to OBCs, including Muslims. Vijayendra also noted the BJP's collaboration with the Janata Dal(S) to challenge the Congress government on various issues, including funding for development in North Karnataka.
