Bengaluru: Now Congressman M B Patil wants a Deputy CM post for North Karnataka


Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (EP)

Bengaluru, May 22: Many names are being discussed for the post of Deputy CM in the state while the coalition of Congress-JD(S) is coming to shape. Former minister M B Patil staked his claim for the job urging that the post be assigned to a legislator belonging to North Karnataka.

He however said that the party high command will have a final say even though he aspires to be the Deputy CM. “If a person from southern Karnataka becomes the chief minister, it will be right for a person from northern Karnataka to be the Deputy CM,” he said.

KPCC president Dr G Parameshwar is among the aspirants for the post of Deputy CM.

Patil said that there should be another Deputy CM from northern Karnataka if Parameshwar is made Deputy CM and that they will request former chief minister Siddaramaiah to consider their request.

Patil who led the movement for a separate religion status for Lingayats said that the community deserved sufficient representation in the government as there are 16 Lingayat legislators in it.

All India Veerashaiva Mahasabha who were against the religious minority status to Lingayats has urged that its president and senior congress leader Shyamanur Shivashankarappa be made Deputy CM besides providing five ministerial berths for Veerashaiva- Lingayat legislators.

M B Patil said that he will be happy if he or Shivashankarappa is made Deputy CM.

    now every tom and jerry want to Deputy CM post... some one wants ministerial berth... first of all big challenge... now 2 parties who doesn't know what are they and why are they on power... will fight for powers and posts now.. good fun to watch them fighting... and collapsing at the end. But a major loss for the state and a clear injustice to the people of Karnataka who gave majority to BJP ( even though clear mandate )... but they gave majority to BJP lifting them to 104 seats... and now seeing these chotu motu parties running the state. any ways... few more days to go... let them fight

    If u wear a black glass, the world look black. Definitely your favourite govt. is Dongi and fortunately they could not succeed to form govt. in Karnataka. Now you may not have come out of the hangover of Congress/JDS alliance. Hope they will not create history of 55 hours govt.

    This Patil is a main man in the hindu division .He is the one who put Siddharamaiyya ji s career under stake and now he wants our former CM only for this.

    Why don't he talk to Yeddy ,Reddy .They also lingayats.

    What makes lingayats so insecure that they want each and everything now?All are greedy .

    So much divisions is making India still ,not moving forward.

    If he is to be dy CM of N.karnataka,then Gov of karnataka should sign him bond paper of good developmental works in North. Can he promise best education , health sectorand tourism for north.Term and conditions must be applied and given deadlines also .

    If he fails do to so he must be charged heavily.why don't the Indian law initiate this to politicians.

    Mr.Patil,

    Stop your foolish demands, take oath as MLA first, and work smart to hold the JDS/Cong alliance intact so that they can lead the nation in 2019.

    What is the necessity to have a Deputy CM for N.K'taka, when there is a District in charge minister for every state of Karnataka......?

    More the positions, more room for corruption, which will bring down all of you together at the same time.

    Work smart in the changing political scenario, or pack off.

    Jai Hind!!!

    There is no limit for greed.
    Gandhian values are to be taught again and again to our legislators that they are there to serve the people and nation but to fight for power or ministerial posts.
    Because of massive offer of Rs.100/- crores to MLA's to defect, greed has entered into the minds and corrupted many MLA's and character of loyalty is fading.
    Buying MLA's for money is biggest ever cancer to Indian Electoral system and democracy!
