Wait for board posts gets longer in Karnataka

Deccan Chronicle  

Mangaluru: As anticipation surges among Congress leaders and party members following their triumphant victory with 135 seats in the recent Assembly election, it seems they will have to wait a few more months for appointments to the Boards and Corporations. To avoid this, the party is likely to delay appointments until after the General Elections next year," a party leader told Deccan Chronicle. Given that Congress only secured 1 out of the 28 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka in the 2019 Parliament elections, the party is now setting its sights on obtaining between 15 and 20 seats this time. In the meantime, sources reveal that party leaders have initiated the process of gathering feedback from leaders regarding the party performance in their respective booths in the recent Assembly elections.
