Won't accept berth in 2nd expansion: Jarkiholi

Senior Congress leader and Yamakanamaradi MLA Satish Jarkiholi said he was not a second-rung leader of the party to accept a Cabinet post during the second expansion of the Janata Dal (Secular)-Congress coalition government.

“Former minister M B Patil has been airing the grievances of dissatisfied MLAs with the party high command and we shall wait for the outcome of the meeting. A future decision will be taken at a meeting to be held on June 11.”
