Bangalore, Oct 15: From humble beginning as a clerk to his rise as chief minister and surrender today before a Lokayukta court in connection with alleged land scams, the political fortunes of former Karnataka chief minister B S Yeddyurappa have see sawed wildly.
The day today turned out to be the lowest point in the life of the Karnataka BJP strongman when a local court rejected his bail plea and remanded him in judicial custody till October 22.
Credited with installing the first ever BJP government in the south four years ago, Yeddyurappa has become the first former chief minister of the state to land in jail on corruption charges.
The 68-year-old leader from Lingayat community who was baptised into politics through Jan Sangh in 1972 saw a steady rise in his career.
