Facing a storm over land scams,Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa arrived here tonight to meet BJP central leaders and hit out at the opposition parties demanding his ouster.

“Who are they to force me to resign?” Yeddyurappa said on his arrival when asked to comment on stepping up of pressure by Congress and JD(S) for his resignation.
