With the State Cabinet due for expansion in a few days, it seems several legislators from North Karnataka are camping in Bengaluru and New Delhi, to lobby for Ministerial berths. Most BJP legislators in Belagavi, including those who were part of the B.S. Yediyurappa Cabinet, are said to be in the State or national capital, meeting senior leaders. Two rumours seem to have added fuel to such efforts. One is that the party will accommodate younger faces in the Cabinet. The second one is that members of various factions within the State BJP, will be inducted. No one knows if they are true. But it is pushing several leaders to lobby for themselves and others, a senior legislator said.
