BENGALURU: Amid the ongoing leadership dispute, Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara has said that he would be happy if senior party leader and Minister for Food, Civil Supplies, and Consumer Affairs, K.H. Muniyappa, who comes from the Dalit community, becomes the Chief Minister.
Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru on Monday, Parameshwara said Muniyappa, a seven-time MP, is an efficient leader.
“Muniyappa has been elected as MP seven times from the Congress party. It is not easy to win seven times. He is a senior leader and a former Union Minister. He is efficient. If Muniyappa is made the Chief Minister, I will be happy.”
