eshChikkamagluru/ Bagalkote: Without refuting the rumours of dissent brewing within the BJP house, Minister CT Ravi said that disappointments were natural because the party has many senior leaders and thus there will be an equal number of cabinet berth aspirants as well.
“It is not possible to allocate a berth to each and every aspirant,” he said after inspecting the flood-hit pockets of Chikamagaluru district on Wednesday.
“Our party has grown from scratch. Naturally, there will be many senior leaders who have toiled for the party, but when it comes to cabinet berth, everyone cannot be accommodated. In such a situation, when the disappointed individuals cannot be convinced by giving them power, steps will be initiated to take them into confidence,” he said adding that it is the only way forward.
Recently Ravi had said that the cabinet expansion will be based on the ‘able and the ability’ and the statement evoked sharp criticism. Responding to the same, Ravi said that his point of view was misinterpreted by many.

Disqualified MLAs will not be cheated
Meanwhile, senior BJP leader and Minister KS Eshwarappa has said that none of the disqualified MLAs who have come to the BJP folds will be left in the lurch.
Speaking to reporters in Bagalkote, Eshwarappa said that injustice will not be made to the 13 MLAs who left their respective parties and came into the BJP house.
Taking a jibe at the Congress for its statement that the BJP government will not last for long, Eshwarappa said that the Congress is making such statements in an inebriated state. Further, launching a scathing attack on the JDS, he said that the party is almost dead and that he does not wish to speak about that party. “The state is facing one of the worst floods ever and these parties want to play politics at this juncture,” he said.
