No need for three Dy.CMs, says Minister Shivanand Patil

Minister for Textiles, Sugarcane Development and Sugar Shivanand Patil has said that there was no need for three Deputy Chief Ministers for the state as both the Chief Minister and the Deputy Chief Minister were efficient to handle the State government.

Speaking to presspersons in Vijayapura on Saturday, he said that there was no need for appointing new Dy.CMs for the State.

On the demand for new Dy.CMs for providing social justice, the Minister sought to know, whether social justice would not be served if they were not appointed. He said that there was no such tradition in Karnataka earlier and it increased only after BJP came to power in the State.
