Bommaiâs election as CM is history repeating itself as his father S R Bommai too had been chief minister under similar circumstances in 1983.
Karnatakaâs new Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai was sworn into office this morning after putting all speculations to rest and setting the tone for the stateâs politics in the months to come.
For all the drama that unfoldedâbeginning with an alleged audio leak regarding the dismantling of the government and CM probables, the landing of Lingayat seers who almost subtly threatened to withdraw support to the BJP if Yediyurappa resigns, to his tearful resignation and more than half a dozen names doing the roundsâthis appointment comes as a dampener. But, it silences most of the voices within the party that were expressing dissent earlier.
