Cabinet reshuffle: CM to leave for Delhi this evening
The performance of Karnataka Ministers has been under scrutiny since the Lok Sabha elections, where the Congress managed to secure only nine seats. Following the victory in the recent Assembly by-elections where the party won all three seats, speculation about a Cabinet reshuffle has intensified.
Ministerial aspirants have ramped up their demands for positions, with some making public statements about their ambitions. A section of MLAs has openly called for their inclusion in the Cabinet, expressing their desire for Ministerial berths.
Message to Ministers
Satish Jarkiholi’s remarks came after Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, who also serves as the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) President, hinted at a reshuffle, indicating that some Ministers had been given a “message” regarding their tenure.
“There are talks about changes. I don’t know when it will happen, but discussions about altering portfolios and replacing some Ministers are underway. I haven’t asked for anything; it’s for the High Command to decide,” said Jarkiholi, who holds the PWD portfolio.
