Bengaluru: The Chairman of the Minister of Basavaraj Bommai, who will finish six months in the office on Thursday, allocated districts that the cabinet ministers will be responsible for, while maintaining urban districts Bengaluru.
When the BBMP election is due, it is widely expected that the responsibility of the Bengaluru urban district will be allocated to senior ministers from the city – either R Ashoka or V Somanna.

“He has de facto in-charge minister for Bengaluru Urban and CM want to continue this unofficial setting,” he added.
Three ministers – BC Patil, K Gopalaiiah and Shankar B Patil Munenakoppa – has been allocated by each of the two districts.
B Sriramulu got the Ballari home district because he represents the mobladial assembly segment in Chitradurga while CN Ashwath Narayan, who has locked the horn with DK Shivakumar and DK Suresh, will continue as Ramanagara District responsible.
“This is a party brass decision that the Minister wants to develop their leadership skills outside their district,” said a person in BJP.
