Bengaluru: After successfully stitching up a post-poll tie up with JD(S) to oust the B.S. Yeddyurappa (BSY) Government, the Congress now seems to be in a dilemma over the Deputy Chief Minister’s (Dy.CM) post.
Soon after the Congress-JD(S) tie up, speculations were rife that KPCC President Dr. G. Parameshwara will become the Dy.CM. But now as there are too many aspirants for the post, the Congress is said to be working out a formula to have two Dy.CMs. While the Veerashaiva-Lingayat lobby is working overtime to have one of its senior MLA as Dy.CM, another group is said to be backing D.K. Shivakumar, who played a key role in keeping the Congress flock intact ahead of BSY’s Floor Test held on Saturday.
