Twenty one legislators from the Bharatiya Janata Party in Karnataka were sworn in at the Raj Bhavan on Monday. While the new cabinet looks more or less the same, the most important exlusion is that of the Reddy brothers and their close aide B Sriramulu.
The Reddy brothers who were part of the Cabinet under B S Yeddyurappa have been left out at least for now following the Lokayukta report, which had recommended action especially against Janardhan Reddy.
The report clearly names the Reddy brothers and Sriramulu on several ocassions and in the case of Janardhan Reddy, it clearly mentions that he should be removed from the cabinet and the BJP in Karnataka has done exactly that.
