People who should watch out include Yeddyurappa, Kumaraswamy and Anil Shastri, says numerologist

Chief minister B S Yeddyurappa had better get ready for a hard time, says a numerologist and extends his advice to L K Advani and H D Kumaraswamy.

The warning came when the seers of Belimutt and Murugamutt in Chitradurga met Doddaballapur-based numerologist K M Basavraj on behalf of the chief minister. Minister Katta Subramanya Naidu along with other cabinet colleagues also approached him on Yeddyurappa's behalf.

"Yeddyurappa may lose power," said Basavraj.

"He lost his guru bala (see box) in the first half of this month, which means he will face hard days ahead."

His predecessor, former chief minister Kumaraswamy, lost power and fell ill for the same reason.

So, who's the next chief minister?

"A third person other than Janardhan Reddy and Sriramulu will become the next chief minister of the state," said Basavraj.

"The BJP-led government may face trouble due to an internal rift," he added.

Others on the list

Apart from BJP's prime ministerial candidate Advani, Anil Shastri, son of former prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri, is also headed for hard times.

Chances of losing

Shastri, who had earlier contested from Uttar Pradesh on a Congress ticket, approached the numerologist on Saturday. And the advice? "Not to contest as the chances of losing are higher than winning," said Basavraj.u00a0u00a0

Similarly, "Advani's chances of becoming PM are low," and "Kumaraswamy will suffer a setback due to a heart ailment," he said.

Coalition govt

One of the frequently-asked questions now is which party will form the government at the centre.u00a0

"It will be a coalition government with no party getting a clear majority," said Basavraj.
