S-Angara


Mangalore, July 16: Amidst the much publicised resignation of Kundapur MLA Haladi Srinivas Shetty, another prominent MLA from Dakshina Kannada district has been mulling over to quit.

S Angara, who represents Sullia constituency in Legislative Assembly, has reportedly threatened BJP high-command to quit from MLA's post if he has not given the ministerial post.

According to sources, the BJP leaders have insisted the MLA to wait for a week, till the party high-command decides upon giving or not giving the ministerial post to him.

Disappointed for not given a ministerial berth, all the leaders of the BJP Mandala Samiti have tendered mass resignation to their party posts and have submitted the resignations to the Mandala Samiti President and Party District President.

However, Angara has not expressed disappointment over the ministerial issue. Angara has told that he gets identity only if the party exists. He will abide by any decision that will be in favour of the party and will never question the decision of the senior leaders.

Block Congress President M Venkappa Gowda said that It is natural for a MLA to dream of becoming a minister.

“However, I wish they had chosen a representative from the district to the cabinet, so that district would have seen some developments,” Gowda said.
