Nov 02: The meeting of Union Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs (CCPA) took place yesterday but no decision was taken to revoke the President’s Rule from Karnataka state. The decision is likely to come today as the President Mrs. Pratibha Patil returns today from Thiruvananthapuram.
The report of Karnataka Governor Rameshwar Thakur has also not been taken for discussion by the committee as was expected. Finance minister told that only routine matters came up for discussion and no discussion took place on the report from Rameshwar Thakur.
The difficulties of BJP in the state are not ready to take last breath as earlier its ally JD (S) refused to transfer the chief ministership to its candidate as was agreed to by both the parties. Now when two parties after a long drift again came together they are not getting a signal from the center as President’s Rule is to be revoked before they could form the government. This is to be known that rule was imposed on the state due to some drift between BJP and JD (S).
This was not enough that Mr. Gowda who promised unconditional support to BJP now has brought certain conditions to keep his son in decision-making position.
Though the decision to let BJP form government in the southern state can get delay but not ruled out as there seems no option with congress but to allow them with the claim of clear majority with the combine. This would be difficult for the center to dare the dissolution of the assembly especially after Bihar experience of judicial intervention.
So the formation of BJP government seems just a matter of time with congress having no option to change the course but just watch in view of the national polls in near future.
