Shimoga: BJP`s Karnataka unit president K S Eshwarappa on Saturday claimed that the leadership issue in the state has been resolved and Sadananda Gowda would continue as the Chief Minister for the remaining term.
"Central leaders have spoken to former Chief Minister
B S Yeddyurappa and leadership issue has been resolved," he
told reporters.
Replying to a question, Eshwarappa said cabinet expansion
and appointment to boards and corporations would be done after
the budget session, which ends on March 30.

crisis in the party would end by April 15.

party leaders would undertake a state-wide tour "to express
regret over the political developments that had hit BJP."
