In a day or two, the decision on the selection of the chief minister of Karnataka would be disclosed, AICC spokesperson Pawan Khera said on Tuesday.
Khera told reporters in Hyderabad that the central leadership is concerned about the matter and has heard the opinions of the recently elected MLAs.
He asked ‘when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will name the LoP in Karnataka,’ pointing out that the role of the Leader of the Opposition is crucial in every state.
“Appointing a chief minister is not an easy thing. It cannot be imposed from Delhi… Everybody’s view has to be taken into consideration. We have to engage with every stakeholder and then decide who the chief minister will be,” he said.
“The process is on. The observers have already gone there. Met the MLAs. The MLAs have given their opinions. Now, the opinions have gone, all the record has gone to the central leadership. So, in a day or two you will know the answer,” Khera added.
Regarding the formation of the government, the Congress leader stated that the BJP needed seven days in Uttar Pradesh, one month in Maharashtra, and nine days in Assam to establish a government.
Khera was replying to a question on when a decision on the next CM of Karnataka would be announced by the party.
