High command changes Parameshwar’s portfolio: Siddaramaiah
Hubballi, Dec 28: “The decision to handover the Home portfolio from DCM Dr G Parameshwar to MB Patil was taken by the party high command. What shall I do in this issue”, former chief minister Siddaramaiah asked.
Speaking to reporters here on Friday, Siddaramaiah said that the news about verbal duels between him and Dr G Parameshwar regarding the Home portfolio was just a rumour. He only had prevailed upon the party high command to make Parameshwar as deputy chief minister, he said.
Ramesh Jarkiholi was in Belagavi and statement that he would desert the Congress was not true. There was a media report that he has gone to Mumbai to meet Maharashtra Chief Minister which is also not true. As he was dropped from the Cabinet, he was unhappy, he said.
“I don’t know as to why JDS leader Basavaraj Horatti is expressing displeasure over me regarding the Cabinet expansion. We have moved as decided in the Coordination Committee meeting. Horatti should ask Kumaraswamy instead of me”, Siddaramaiah said.
When asked about HD Revanna’s statement that DCM Dr G Parameshwar was being oppressed in the Congress as he was dalit, Siddaramaiah expressed his surprise about the statement of JDS leader. If Revanna asked him this question, he would give him an answer, he said.
