The reason behind the resignation has not been revealed yet officially, but it is very clear that Yeddyurappa's age is the only reason for the resignation.
Yediyurappa not only had donated highest fund to the temples but also fulfilled the long- pending demands of temple priests, whose salary and perks were doubled, thereby costing the state exchequer 58 crore a year.
BJP is failing to act as a responsible opposition party. Congress in K'taka is making new blunders every now and then but BJP is so busy in fighting within the party that they have failed to take up this advantage.
