Shivamogga MP B.Y. Raghavendra Invites Eshwarappa to BSY Abhimanotsava

B.Y. Raghavendra, Shivamogga MP, has invited former Minister K.S. Eshwarappa to the BSY Abhimanotsava to be held in Chitradurga on Saturday. Raghavendra stated on his social media account that he met Eshwarappa and offered him an invitation to the programme.

Raghavendra and Eshwarappa have been companions in the BJP for decades, working together as presidents of the party's State unit and as colleagues in the Cabinet.

Eshwarappa was expelled from the BJP in 2024 for contesting as an independent candidate for the Shivamogga Lok Sabha constituency against the party's official candidate, B.Y. Raghavendra.

The BSY Abhimanotsava is scheduled to take place on Saturday, and Raghavendra's invitation to Eshwarappa may be seen as an attempt to mend relations between the two former colleagues. The event's organizers will likely release further details on the programme and its attendees in the coming days.
