It's Yediyurappa now

Bengaluru: BJP Karnataka chief B S Yeddyurappa has reverted to the earlier English spelling of his name B S Yediyurappa, apparently influenced by numerology.

The change became public on Friday in his letter to Governor Vajubhai Vala, staking claim to form the government.

There are reports that the chief minister has gone in for the change based on numerology.
