Ramesh Jarkiholi, K.S Eeshwarappa attend assembly sessions after 3 days
Assurance of Ministerial position
Belagavi: Former ministers and senior BJP leaders K.S Eeshwarappa and Ramesh Jarkiholi, who were both keen on obtaining ministerial positions, met Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday night. In the background of receiving assurances from the CM regarding their desired ministerial positions, both BJP leaders attended the assembly sessions on Thursday, after forgoing them for the past 3 days.
K.S Eeshwarappa, who arrived to attend the Vidhana Sabha session, addressed the media at the Suvarna Soudha and said, “We didn’t attend the sessions for two days to point out why we were not added to the cabinet during the cabinet expansion despite getting a clean chit in the cases against us. This is not just our question, but the question of the state’s people and the activists. We have no answer to this”, he said.
“Whether it is me or Ramesh Jarkiholi, we did not see the Ministerial position now. Even we know that by becoming ministers in 3 months, we cannot cut anything to raise a hill”, Eeshwarappa said.
