Bengaluru: Bengaluru Cooperative Milk Union Ltd (BAMUL) president and Congress leader D K Suresh said on Sunday that a Cabinet reshuffle was the prerogative of the CM.
Suresh, a former MP and Deputy CM D K Shivakumar's brother, told reporters: "The CM is acting as per the directions of the high command. If high command discusses it with Shivakumar, he will give suggestions. There’s already a CM now. When there’s no CM, we can discuss leadership change."
Suresh said his brother would remain state Congress chief "as long as party wants".
"Shivakumar will listen to whatever the high command says. Not just Shivakumar, everyone will listen. There shall be no doubt about it".
Suresh said he may go to Delhi, but clarified that his travel was not connected to Shivakumar’s visit. "He has gone on his own, while I will go on my own. I have other works."
