The hunt for B.S. Yeddyurappa's successor in Karnataka is on and as yet there seems to be no clear winner. BJP's central leaders - Rajnath Singh and Arun Jaitley - are leaving for Bangalore on Tuesday dusk. The legislature party assembly is scheduled for Wednesday.
While the BJP is looking for harmony, Yeddyurappa is adamant on his candidate Sadananda Gowda, and the anti-BSY group's choice is Jagdish Shettar.
State party president K.S. Eshwarappa has backed out as a contender and there are reports that it is to make sure that his post is not vacant for it to be occupied by BSY.
Here are the three scenarios that have emerged before the BJP. In the first case, both side arrive at a accord to support Yeddyurappa's man Gowda, in which case there will be no need for a vote.
Second, Yeddurappa agrees to Shettar flattering the next CM, and Yeddyurappa is given the post of party president.
Third, both sides remain obstinate and the party is forced to go in for a vote. However, BJP's central leadership is treading cautiously as it does not want to upset Yeddyurappa, who is believed to have the hold of over 65 of the 121 BJP MLAs.
