A day before the Karnataka government offered cabinet rank status to former chief minister BS Yediyurappa. But he wrote to his successor Basavaraj Bommai to withdraw the same and requested the newly appointed chief minister to provide him with only those facilities that he was eligible for as the immediate former CM.

The senior BJP leader wrote “I request you to provide me only those facilities which are given to an immediate former chief minister and withdraw the order giving me a cabinet rank,”

Sources said that Bommai had offered Yediyurappa the role on Saturday. The former CM of Karnataka is said to have played a key role in the former’s elevation as the CM, with all facilities at par with Cabinet-rank ministers.

An official report stated that the Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms (DPAR), the perks will be applicable till the time Bommai is in office. This would have also meant, the senior leader from the Lingayat community may have continued to live in Cauvery, the official residence of the Karnataka chief minister.

Ending months of speculation and dissent, Yediyurapparesigned on July 26, the day his government completed two years in office after overthrowing a Congress-Janata Dal (Secular) government. A day later, Yediyurappa had proposed Bommai’s name as the leader at the BJP legislature party meet and was accordingly accepted by all. On July 28, Bommai took oath as the new chief minister.

In an interview with a leading daily, the current CM of Karnataka said that he had no issues working under the guidance of Yediyurappa, who is a mentor and his vast experience would only help him govern the state efficiently.
