BJP coordination committee meet today

The committee, constituted by the party central leadership, in a bid to quell dissidence, is also likely to give a stamp of approval for electing Energy Minister K S Eshwarappa as the new state unit president. Party strategy for the BBMP polls and the process of shortlisting candidates is also likely to be discussed, party sources said.

The CM, during the BJP legislature party meeting held earlier this month, had assured a section of legislators that their demands  –– inclusion of seniors and loyalists in the Cabinet, besides re-constitution of boards and corporations –– would be placed before the committee.
