NDTV
BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal also put forth a demand that the leader of the opposition in the Assembly should be from North Karnataka.
Senior BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal on Friday said the party should not become a part of one family, in an apparent reference to the appointment of BY Vijayendra, son of veteran leader BS Yediyurappa, to the post of Karnataka state unit president.
Neither the BJP nor Hindu activists will accept it if it becomes a party of one family, the Vijayapura MLA said, striking a discordant note ahead of the Legislature Party meeting where opposition leaders in the Assembly and Council are slated to be chosen later on Friday.
He also put forth a demand that the leader of the opposition in the Assembly should be from North Karnataka.
