Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has warned the BJP that the women s reservation bill will fail if it does not include a horizontal quota for women from backward communities. He argued that backward class women lack the resources to compete with others and therefore need political representation.
In a tweet, the MHA clarified that the movement of Governors and Chief Ministers on their state aircrafts are allowed even though there is high tech security air cover in the national capital.
The AICC is currently invested in deciding a powerful role for Shivakumar, if Siddaramaiah becomes the chief minister. Some sources in the Congress said that he may be appointed as deputy chief minister and may be given important portfolios in the cabinet.
