Bengaluru: The New Head of the Head of Karnataka, Basavaraj Bommai, faced his first big challenge since being sworn by the end of last month. Bommai struggled against dissatisfaction in his cabinet as a handful of ministers, including the Minister of Tourism and Anand Singh’s environment, pushed different portfolios.
From Hosapete in the state Vijayanagara district, a video has appeared – from a signboard outside the deleted Anand Singh office. The video distributed extensively seen as a message from the former MLA Congress, which earlier this week openly revealed unhappiness.
“Today I have lost hope and hope that I have for my protection … But I haven’t lost your confidence. I have made my request for everyone I need … but not in public. In the four walls I have revealed My feelings and difficulties, “he said.
Mr. Singh has visited temples in his home district.
On Monday he told reporters: “Whatever request I made was not fulfilled. As a party, I am not ready to comment. I will meet with the minister’s chairman and make my request once again.”
The minister’s chairman said he would solve the problem with the man he described as his old friend.
“Anand Singh has been my friend for three decades. I talked to him yesterday … I will talk to him today too. Everything will be fine as soon as he comes and we talk,” said Bommai told reporters in Bengaluru.
Anand Singh is one of the MLA congresses who jumped to BJP in 2019 – the switch that triggered the collapse of the coalition-JDS coalition.
And he is not the only one of the package to express unhappiness over posting his minister.
MTB Nagaraj, who has been assigned to the administration of the city and cane, is also rumored to be unhappy. “I have told the chairman of our ministers about it. He has said – ‘Continue with the work now. Let’s see what can be done in the coming days’. I put my faith in him,” he said.
“I have spoken with MTB Nagaraj. There are no problems there,” said the ministerial head.
A few days after the August 4 cabinet reshuffle, the main minister has discussed the initial report on some of the minister’s dissatisfaction that said: “Everyone cannot get the portfolio they want.”
The collapse of the Congress-JDS coalition in 2019 took BS Yediyurappa to power – and he promised MLA who jumped sending his prize. The task made it happen, it seemed, had been handed over to Mr. Bommai.
