He said, ‘I have discussed the cabinet expansion with my national president JP Nadda – what to do, how to do it, how to change it.’
Yeddyurappa said that according to him he would confirm within two days and a program would be planned to take oath of the new ministers in three-four days. He told reporters that everything will be finalized within three days. Asked about meeting some people to join the cabinet, Yeddyurappa said, “Such discussions go on. MLAs will give their opinion, I don’t want to discuss it.
