Towards this end, BJP state president  B S Yeddyurappa, has fanned out six groups to various parts of the state to tour the state, conduct study about the ground reality of farmer’s issues, and submit a report to him by the month’s end. These groups will generally go across the state in each district, get firsthand record of issues faced by the farmers, and give the result of the study to BS Yeddyurappa. BJP will then utilize this data to assault the government based on these issues both inside and outside the legislature. 

One of these groups, which would visit Vijayapura, Belagavi, Bagalkote, Udupi, and Dakshina Kannada district is headed by former minister and leader of BJP state farmer wing president, Laxman Savadi.
