Belagavi, Nov 20: Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Jagadish Shettar on Monday sought an enquiry into reports that Indira canteens were serving food below the stipulated quantity specified by the government.

Participating in a discussion in the Assembly, Shettar said that while the quantity stipulated per plate of lunch was 300 grams of rice, 150 grams of sambar and 50 grams of chutney, what was served was much less leaving consumers dissatisfied.

"Media reports have exposed that those who have bagged contracts to prepare food at Indira canteen are cheating consumers by serving them less than the stipulated quantity. The government should immediately order a probe into the matter," he said.

Bengaluru, Jan 30: Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa, who reached the national capital on Thursday, said he will discuss the much-awaited Ministry expansion with the BJP high command.

"It's been long that I visited Delhi. I will meet the party national president J P Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah and take their suggestions on the cabinet expansion," Yediyurappa told reporters.

The chief minister said he will also call on Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and discuss about development issues related to Karnataka.

Yediyurappa has been anxiously waiting for the high command's nod to expand his ministry amid intense lobbying by the aspirants.

Opposition parties have been critical of the BJP and Yediyurappa over the delay in cabinet expansion, alleging that he was weak and that the administration had collapsed.

As the chief minister has already made it clear that 11 of the disqualified JDS-Congress MLAs who got re-elected in the bypolls on BJP tickets will be made ministers, lobbying has been on in the party for the remaining ministerial berths.

Currently, there are 18 Ministers, including the chief minister in the cabinet that has a sanctioned strength of 34. Sixteen berths are vacant.
