The State government on Sunday appointed new district in-charge Ministers by making a few fresh appointments and enacting reshuffle for six districts, including Belagavi, Kolar, and Chikkamagaluru, which did not have in-charge Ministers. The absence of district in-charge Ministers had come under sharp criticism from the Opposition nearly a fortnight ago during the all-party meeting convened by Governor Vajubhai Vala. Deputy Chief Minister Govind Karjol has been given the charge of Belagavi district, which had fallen vacant following the resignation of Ramesh Jarkiholi. Incidentally, the district, with among the highest political representation in the State, has four Ministers, of whom none have got the charge. Mr. Karjol is from the neighbouring Bagalkot district.More Related News
