A purported leaked audio clip of senior BJP leader and former Karnataka CM DV Sadananda Gowda asking for BY Vijayendra to be "kicked out" as state BJP president has gone viral. This has created a stir within the Karnataka BJP unit as leaders close to Vijayendra hit back at Gowda. Gowda, however, denied the voice was his, calling it fake.
