Bengaluru, Oct 29: Speculations are rife that deputy chief minister (DCM) Laxman Savadi’s name will be dropped from the cabinet.
According to sources, the cabinet will be reshuffled. The top BJP leadership is not happy with Savadi’s performance in Maharashtra assembly polls. BJP won only two of 18 seats in Sangli and Kolhapur districts, whose responsibility was given to Savadi. Hence, BJP is likely to drop him if the cabinet gets reshuffled.
Meanwhile, former minister CP Yogeshwar is likely to be rewarded with a cabinet berth for his efforts to get BJP back to power. There are high chances that Yogeshwar will be given a ticket to contest bypoll from Hunsur or made an MLC.
