Bangalore, 12 July 2012: Jagadish Shettar was Thursday sworn in as Karnataka Chief Minister, becoming the third Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader to head the party government in four years.

 

Governor H.R. Bhardwaj administered the oath of office and secrecy to Shettar at a simple ceremony in the glass house of Raj Bhavan in city centre.

 

Shettar, 56, took over from D.V. Sadananda Gowda, who was forced out of office without completing a year following months of dissidence orchestrated by the BJP’s first chief minister in southern India, B.S. Yeddyurappa. Yeddyurappa was shown the door by the party last July over mining bribery charges.

 

Karnataka’s new chief minister hails from a family with close association to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the BJP’s predecessor Jan Sangh.

 

Shettar is a four-time legislator representing Hubli rural constituency in Dharwad district, about 400 km north of Bangalore.

Congratulations to Mr Jagadish Shettar, Our C.M. Keep the friend BSY away so that you will reduce your troubles. He has spoiled the image of the BJP and fit to go to jail,[ but for corruption in Judiciary he may be moving out of jail] Yet it may not be for long. Be your self and carry on the responsibiltiy without fear or favovur and justice to all. God will Bless you. OPlease do not try to cheat God.

People voted BJP to come to power expecting good government.But they proved themselves that they are most corrupt and power hungry than all other parties. Now they landed the state to a pathetic situation and become very selfish. They should have allowed Gowda to complete remaining period before next assembly election.
