BENGALURU: State BJP president B.S. Yeddyurappa asked party workers not to wait for the anti-incumbency factor against the Siddaramaiah government to swell but focus on programmes launched by the Narendra Modi-led NDA government to attract voters to the party.

Speaking at an event organized to mark Pratap Simha, MP, taking charge as the youth wing president here on Thursday, he said “All of us know that Siddaramaiah government’s popularity is on the decline. We have to come together and fight the government and also attract voters to our party. Of course, people do remember good programmes launched during our tenure.” He said that the youth wing workers should not remain “visiting card” leaders but work tirelessly for the growth of the party.
