Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa may go for cabinet expansion after the December 5 bypolls to 15 assembly segments, Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi said on Wednesday.
The Cabinet expansion will be done after securing approval from the party’s national leadership, he told reporters at Athani.
“After considering pros and cons, Chief Minister will decide on whom to
be inducted, he (Chief Minister) is thinking about it. He would also seek advice from the high command,” Savadi said.
In response to a question, he said senior BJP legislators like Umesh Katti and Basanagouda Patil Yatnal may be considered during the expansion “as they are seniors.”
