The BJP Parliamentary Board will meet here today to decide the fate of Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa amidst signs that his continuance in office could be untenable in wake of the Lokayukta indictment in the mining scam.
The top brass of the BJP will meet this morning at the residence of BJP President Nitin Gadkari, who met Yeddyurappa late last night.
Yeddyurappa, who continued to be defiant and ruled out his resignation, left for Bangalore early this morning. He has a convened of meeting of party MLAs this morning in the Karnataka capital.
Sources said usually a meeting of the Parliamentary Board, the party's highest decision making body, is called only when some big decision has to be taken, and this is also a pointer that Yeddyurappa's time is up.
Upon his arrival here last evening with his ministers and close confidants, Yeddyurappa appeared defiant and said he has not been asked to resign.
