Shows "Internal Situation" In Congress: Basavaraj Bommai
Outgoing Karnataka Chief Minister and Bharatiya Janata Party leader Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday said that the ongoing suspense over the chief ministerial face by Congress shows the "internal situation" in the party.
Congress has been holding deliberations over the Karnataka chief minister's post, following the party's win in the assembly polls on May 13. Top contenders for the post including DK Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah have been camping in the national capital, meeting the party's top leaders.
Speaking to the media, Basavaraj Bommai said that the Congress party should choose a chief minister at the soonest.
"Congress is yet to finalise its Chief Minister candidate in spite of getting a majority. This shows the internal situation in the party. The aspirations of people are more important than politicking. Congress should choose a chief minister as soon as possible," Mr Bommai said.
