All have been asked to give two weeks' time in the poll-bound state," he added.The source said that BS Yediyurappa will play a cardinal role as a star campaigner for the party.The party will contest the polls alone and will not forge a pact with Janata Dal (Secular).This time also the BJP will fight the entire assembly elections with PM Modi's face and on the development model of the double-engine government.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
