In the wake of political uncertainty triggered by Governor H R Bhardwaj recommending dismissal of Karnataka government, Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa today left for Vaishnodevi temple in Jammu to seek divine intervention.

Mr. Yeddyurappa left the city by a special flight and reach the temple by a helicopter, sources in the Chief Minister’s Secretariat told PTI.

Mr. Yeddyurappa has been visiting Vaishno Devi temple whenever he faced political crisis or threat to his chair.

He visited the temple in 2009 and 2010, when BJP rebels upped their ante demanding change in leadership.
