JD(S) takes dig at one-man Cabinet, says BSY both proposer & approver of projects

Saturday, 17 August 2019 | PTI | Bengaluru

The JD(S) on Friday took a dig at the one-man Cabinet of the BS Yediyurappa Government claiming that the Chief Minister is both the proposer and approver of projects worth thousands of crores of rupees.

The regional party also invoked "Nikhil Yellidiyappa" (Where are You Nikhil) campaign, on Yediyurappa and asked "YadiyurappaCabinetYellappa" (Yediyurappa where is cabinet).

"Nikhil Yellidiyappa" phrase with its multiple funny versions had gone viral during the Mandya Lok Sabha poll campaign, from where JD(S) leader and former Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy's son Nikhil Kumaraswamy was the party candidate.

Nikhil lost to Sumalatha Ambareesh, an independent candidate supported by the BJP.

"Minutes of Karnataka Cabinet meeting held recently- Yadiyurappa (Yediyurappa) called Yadiyurappa for cabinet meeting. Yadiyurappa proposed projects worth thousands of crores.

Yadiyurappa approved all the projects proposed by Yadiyurappa. #YadiyurappaCabinetYellappa," JD(S) tweeted.

Yediyurappa, who took oath as the Chief Minister on July 26 and proved his government's majority on the floor of the assembly on July 29, is yet to induct any minister into his cabinet.

Yediyurappa is currently on a visit to Delhi during which he would hold talks with party president Amit Shah and finalise the much awaited expansion of his cabinet.

Yediyurappa had on Thursday said he would be in Delhi on Friday and the day after. "I will also talk to Amit Shah regarding cabinet and come to final decision before coming back," he added.
