Bengaluru: Amid disagreement between the ruling coalition partners — Janata Dal (Secular) and Congress — Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on Sunday signed orders for the appointment of Congress Legislators to various statutory Boards and Corporations. However, the CM left out five key recommendations made by the Congress.
The Congress had submitted a list of 19 Party Legislators on Dec. 22 to be nominated for Boards and Corporations. But, the CM has cleared 14 names, who will hold Cabinet rank posts. He also cleared the names of eight Legislators (from a list of nine submitted by the Congress) to be appointed as Parliamentary Secretaries, holding the rank of Minister of State.
