Members of the Satish Jarkiholi Abhimani Balaga said that the Congress MLA from Yamakanamaradi deserved to be Chief Minister. “The Congress high command should make him the Chief Minister someday. If he cannot be made the Chief Minister now, he should at least be made the Deputy Chief Minister,” they said.
They held placards and shouted slogans in favour of their leader. Leaders Shantappa Ankalagi, Suresh Gavannanavar, Basavaraj Dummanayak, Mushtaq Jamadar and others were present.
And, Satish Jarkiholi who spoke to journalists in Bengaluru said that he was not very keen on the Deputy Chief Minister post. “I want to accept the responsibility of a Ministry and work responsibly. That will benefit the people of the State,” he said.
“I believe there should be one Chief Minister and one Deputy Chief Minister. However, if there are multiple Deputy Chief Ministers and these posts are being distributed to leaders of various communities, then, I think I will stake claim to it,” he said.
