Don't lobby for cabinet berths: Modi tells Yeddy, Ananth Kumar


New Delhi, May 20 (NDTV): With a long queue of ministerial hopefuls at his doorstep, Narendra Modi has reportedly told party MPs not to lobby for a place in his government.

On Sunday, Modi reportedly ticked off a delegation of BJP MPs from Karnataka, led by BS Yeddyurappa and Ananth Kumar that they should stop angling for ministries and instead work to strengthen the party in their state.

Goa leader Shripad Naik apparently did not get the message. The four-time MP openly admitted today that he expects a ministry. "We have given both seats in Goa with a very good margin. Goa may be a small state but it should get its due," he said.

A BJP MP from Maharashtra, Sharad Bansule, said he expected to be rewarded for defeating Sushil Kumar Shinde in Solapur in Maharashtra. "If I am a minister, I can do more for my constituency. I am an artist, I have worked in films...," he said.

Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar, who also met Modi, however, told reporters, "Give Modi reasonable time to build his own team."

Allies like the Shiv Sena and the Telugu Desam Party will also meet Modi, but while they are expecting cabinet slots on the back of good performance in their states, they realize that the BJP has an even better mandate to call the shots.

Modi, who has ruled Gujarat since 2001 and has trumpeted the "Gujarat model" of governance as an example of what he can do for the country, is known to prefer a compact cabinet.

The Prime Minister-to-be yesterday met several top bureaucrats including the Home Secretary Anil Goswami. Following these meetings, Cabinet Secretary Ajit Seth has asked key ministries to prepare power point presentations for Modi on what went wrong in their ministries, how they can achieve targets and their budget needs.

Led by Modi, the BJP won its biggest mandate ever in the national election, taking 282 seats on its own and 336 with its allies.

The 63-year-old is expected to be sworn in as India's 15th Prime Minister this weekend.

    Modi is aware, as the days pass by these power hungry politicians especially from Karnataka may even threaten to (their culture) leave the party. Hence his terse reminder to them to concentrate their efforts in their states to improve party's position and not to try and influence the Center for ministerial berths.
    Modi is very keen to keep his allies with him, just in case, when he sees these type come running for MBerths. He is aware of dissent and threats too in the near future....
    He will not care for all that at all.
    His main aim is to consolidate, not for only 5 years but for many more such "five year " continuously.
    From the looks of it, he will keep everyone in their place starting from LKAdvani...from the beginning.

When you short of issues to crib,you start to talk about vote share.CONgress was 19.3%, so more then 80% of the nation rejected them. Vote share can be considered if its only 2 parties stand in the entire country. After listening to todays speech, even your neighbour would have started liking Modi and thinking "INDIA FIRST"

    This massive unexpected victory of the BJP is indeed not of the party, but mainly the winning of Mr. Modi as a miracle working political star risen.

    Well, those sister parties, along with the BJP leaders are aiming for high positions in the cabinet-foreign posts-Governor post-etc etc etc. Politics everywhere, especially in India is not a self-denial calling but a " selfish grabbing enterprise".

    Now Mr. Modi has far greater headache to handle " the power play" in his party from a multitude! Can he offend the people who have donated mammoth financial donations? Did they donate out of compassion, not at all. They expect some high return for crores of Rs donated.

    If the corrupted officials are put into cabinet posts etc, that virus will create serious cracking problems for his administration from the very beginning.

    Dear Respected Modiji,
    Hearty congratulations on the eve of becoming the Prime Minister of our great nation.People have great hope on you and given majority mandate in favour of BJP/NDA/Your self only on the call given by you ie., "achche din aanewale hain","Yek Bharat shresta Bharath".In Karnataka the previous BJP was one of the worst experience for the people in the state under various CMs who are figuring in the above photo.All are corrupt to the core.Inspite of 100% of the BJP ministers/MLAs were corrupt and earned enought assests in illegal way.While fighting the recent LS election,there was no other option to reachout to you/to make PM other than through these corrupt materials.Many time the question was coming to our mind when NAMO Brigades were shouting the slogan "Ab ki baari Modi ki sarkar" Many have pondered seriously as to how this can be possible in Karnataka when we have this set of smiling unscrupulous netas in BJP.Ultimately it was conceiled that not to see the candidate but aim at making Modi as PM.This worked and people in the entire country seen you only though candidates are corrupt especially in respect of Karnataka this was the core issue.Non of the netas of privious BJP govt in Karnataka are clean and sincere.Therefore,it is the hubmle request to kindly note these points while building the ministerial team by you.You have also coined a slogan that "minimum governanment...maximum governance" So dear Modiji please leave up to this slogan and appoint only minimum best among the elected leaders as ministers.We have no doubt that you are prudent enough to read the pulses of the voters as well as elected leaders.This stretegy is required in the interest of the party as well as for good governance.

    BJP was in such a desperate situation that they gave tickets to most of the useless & rejected candidates. But I thought Karnataka people are sensible enough to choose the right candidate. Electing Shobha, Yeddy, Sriramulu, Nalin etc is shocking, pathetic and shame. Kannadiga's are repeating the same mistakes once again. One should forget party or leader to vote for honest and clean candidate. This will make the spoilt candidate to repent for all the mistakes he or she has done during their tenure.

    As from Udupi I never anticipated Shobha’s win from Udupi /Chickmagaluru constituency. Jayaprakash Hedge is much much able than Shobha. The main reason for BJP’s gain in Karnataka is congress party’s appeasement policy of certain community. After coming to power in Karnataka they started to cross the limit.

    He is comfortable with people who hail from the Hindi speaking belt or those who will dare not question his actions. People from South are smart and will raise their voice if they notice something wrong.

    The bottom line is that he want to rule like a dictator and South Indians are pretty smart and can halt him in his tracks...hence he will prefer people from the cow belt regions.

    Personally, i would want Sadananda Gowda to get a berth in the center. He is a decent person and has the potential to do the job.

    Any way, NAD has managed 40%(round fig) vote share, and the vote are very concentrated so it is converted into seats.
    And regarding Kerala, nothing can be done,for your info BJP vote share has increased there.And it will take time to build a seat,BJP is not like Congress which is 100 yr old party.If you remember BJP has started his tally from 2 seats.

Nearly all our MP & MLAS are crorepathis and multi millionaires. They have been elected to perform as representatives for the people of India, to do social service and not to be paid a heavy salary. But the scenario is the other way round. Let Modi first cut the salary of all the elected MP along with the perks, then see how enthusiastic these MP are in performing their jobs.

I really liked the way, he had said to all Karnataka MP delegates led by BS Yeddyurappa and Ananth Kumar that they should stop angling for ministries and instead work to strengthen the party in their state.

    Very good move. No appeasement. Perform or perish. Good, bold message. First service and then, position.

    Message is very clear. Also, Modi's governance should not be like UPA. Most of the UPA minister's were chamcha's of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi. PM Manmohan Singh had no powers or control over his ministers. As BJP has got majority, it can form government of it's own and he should be able to monitor his ministers. I am just hoping for the best. Hope Modi is able to book all corrupt. There should be zero tolerance on corruption. If Modi is able to curtail corruption, more than 50% of his tasks are done.

    If Govt performs well, definitely all ministerial aspirants will be rewarded by the people of their constituents.
    For people performance and peace only matters.
    This is the message, may be Modi is trying to convey to all the aspirants.
    Ultimately, nation comes first, most deserving persons, able to deliver results, should find place in the ministerial team.

    Mr. Modi - The right person, for the right job, at the right time. All you MP's who want berths in the cabinet are doing so for selfish reasons, if you guys are interested in the welfare of the nation, give the new PM a chance to breath and he will decide what is in the best interests of the country. Lobbying for prime posts is a Congress tradition - like in Karnataka money spinning portfolios given to the chosen few. Modi will not and should not be pressurized. BSY should not get a berth simply because having tasted blood (money) he will not settle for water and may be a blot on the BJP central.

    It is easy to control state politicians like Guj state but Controlling multiple state's politician is herculean task.Most of the Ex CMs,Ministers or allies will not care and may openly pressure for ministerial berth on one hand and importantly their choice of portfolios.After getting 282 MPs of own party,in which 35% MPs are with having criminal charges and multi -Core pathis will give Modi a tough time.It is now clear BSY will not get any ministry and Karnataka may get 2 ministerial berth only?

People where fed up of UPA rule.They have almost destroyed india. the govt has to be rooted out. the light in the darkness was modi. did u forget in your own district 3 minority MLA from congress elected in last assembly election. would it be possible with only 20% of minorirty population vote. it was same case. Corrupt rule and no peace. be practical Mr.Perinje. its a clear and whole hearted mandate to modi. let us welcome it.

    Mr. Perinje,
    You started by stating that Congress got crores of seats (ok not money) but not as many MPs. Even there, if BJP got 17 crores it is higher than Congress' 10 crores. You have to accept our democratic system.
    If you start dividing it region wise and state that Modi was not the real winner, then you are talking against our constitution. Even Congress has been consistently getting very low seats in UP/ Bihar but they managed to (mis) rule for 10 years.
