Bengaluru, June 24: Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwar said that the government has decided to give Cabinet rank to former chief minister and Congress-JDS coalition government Coordination Committee Chairman Siddaramaiah.

Speaking to reporters at his residence at Sadashivanagar in the city on Sunday, the DCM said that as Siddaramaiah is the chairman of the Coordination Committee, the government is planning to give him the Cabinet rank.

“I have placed the demand for a government quarters. But I have not asked for a particular one. Currently, I am finding it difficult to meet the public at the house where I am residing. I have not demanded for the ‘Cauvery’”, he clarified.

He said he does not know about some dissident MLAs who met former chief minister Siddaramaiah and discussed the issues like cabinet expansion, appointment to boards and corporations.
