A rebellion of sorts broke out in BJP in Karnataka on Friday (July 29) with Yeddyurappa loyalists pressing the high command to allow him to continue as Chief Minister, claiming he has the support of over half the party MLAs and MPs. In what appears to be a show of strength by 68-year-oldB S Yeddyurappa that could delay electing his successor, his camp legislators told the party's central observers Rajnath Singh and Arun Jaitley that it should reconsider the decision asking him to resign. The observers were told that the opinion of individual MLAs must be ascertained. TIMES NOW's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami debates the issue with Nirmala Seetharaman, National Spokesperson, BJP; Abhishek Manu Singhvi, National Spokesperson, Congress; DB Chandre Gowda, MP, BJP - Karnataka; TSR Subramaniam, Former Cabinet Secretary and Siddharth Bhatia, Columnist.
