Bengaluru: In a major disappointment to Dakshina Kannada, no one from the district, not even six-time Sullia MLA S Angara, has been shortlisted for a ministerial post. Surprisingly, Kundapura MLA Haladi Shrinivasa Shetty has also sidelined.
Umesh Katti and Murugesh Nirani are the other two important leaders who have been overlooked during the allotment of cabinet berths.
Govind M Karajol, C N Ashwath Narayan, Laxman S Savadi, K S Eshwarappa, R Ashok, Jagadish Shettar, B Sreeramulu, S Suresh Kumar, V Somanna, C T Ravi, Basavaraj Bommai, Kota Srinivas Poojari, J C Madhu Swamy, C C Patil, Prabhu Chavan, Shashikala Annasaheb and independent MLA H Nagesh have been given ministerial posts.
