Coordination Committee for smooth functioning of coalition government: Siddu
Bengaluru, June 1: Former chief minister Siddaramaiah said that he would thank the party high command for appointing him as the head of the Congress-JDS Coalition Government Coordination Committee.
Speaking to reporters at Hotel Ashok here on Friday after a joint press conference, Siddaramaiah said that let both the parties work in coordination in the coalition government. Coordination Committee has been constituted to ensure no differences among partners. This Committee would meet once or twice in a month or on need basis to discuss on the decisions to be taken by the government. Even the manifestos of both the parties would also be discussed and plan a minimum programme for the welfare of the people of the state, he said.
It is not fair that the JDS has upper hand in terms of sharing portfolios. Decision was taken only after discussing with each other. The statement that those who will not get portfolios would rebel is just a rumour, he said.
Let the Truth be known. If you read VB and like VB, please be a VB Supporter and Help us deliver the Truth to one and all.
