I will not decorate the post you have given me. Please don’t mistake me,” Kumaraswamy wrote in a letter to Yediyurappa.</p>.<p>“All that’s important to me is the BJP government administered by you for the next three years.” The 3-time MLA also profusely thanked Yediyurappa for having supported him throughout his political career.</p>.<p>“The SC (Right) community is a sizable population in the state.
