There are lots of rumors
about B S Yeddyurappa and Shobha Karandlaje. A senior politician of Karnataka
and once an ally of BSY had once gone to the extent of claiming that BSY and
Shobha are married.
Interestingly, both of
them have never denied this statement.
They are mum about one
of the most hotly discussed relationships of Karnataka.
BSY is expected to
become the CM of Karnataka. He wanted Shobha to fight election from
Yashwantpur. However, senior party leaders of the state somehow convinced Amit
Shah to keep Shobha out of state politics. She is currently an MP and these
leaders want her to do politics from New Delhi.
BSY, Shobha and US Cable
WikiLeaks had released
lots of confidential US cable. One of them belongs to BSY and Shobha. In the
communication sent by the US Embassy, it is said that BSY lost the post of
Chief Minister because of his GIRLFRIEND Shobha. Yes, the cable mentions Shobha
as his girlfriend.
BSY, Wife and Girlfriend
Shobha has always been a
popular RSS face of Dakshina Kannada. However, she made an entry into the world
of politics only in 2004. She was sent to the Legislative Council.
Interestingly, that was
also the year when BSY had lost his loving wife in a freak accident.
BSY became all alone in
2004.
Shobha entered Council
the same year.
Did Shobha fill the void
created by the unfortunate demise of his wife?
BSY, Shobha and Reddy
Shobha fought Assembly
election in 2008. BSY became the Chief Minister. She was inducted into the
Cabinet with a powerful portfolio. Within few months, she became the most
powerful person of the Government. All files meant for the Chief Minister used
to first submitted to her office.
Reddy Brothers started
to feel isolated. They were instrumental in bringing the first BJP Government
in Karnataka. They were behind the infamous Operation Lotus which led to full
majority for the party. They wanted attention and power. But, Shobha had chewed
everything.
Reddy Brothers revolted.
Many senior leaders also revolted. BSY tried his best to save Shobha. But,
later, he had to ask Shobha to resign to save his own chair.
Shobh resigned only to
return in the Government after few months.
In the meantime, there
remained ambiguity about the exact relationship between Shobha and BSY.
We still don’t know.
