Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on Sunday said the Congress high command had reduced the tenure of the boards and corporation positions to two years to ensure that more number of party workers are rewarded for their work.
Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, Mr. Shivakumar said: “The tenure has been reduced to two years to ensure that all the Congress workers who have worked hard for the party over the years are recognised and rewarded.”
“We have only introduced the high command sutra. This is not the formula of Siddaramaiah or D.K. Shivakumar. Many Congress workers have worked for party and it is the party’s responsibility to reward them,” he noted.
