Former CM's son to become the future CM of Karnataka

Deve Gowda's master plan worked. All the melodrama that was played out in a drawn out fashion - the (crocodile) tears as his son betrayed him, then stating that he was with his son's decision, finally stepping down as the party president to make way for his son - everything worked out in his favour. I may even add, in his family's favour. Power sits within the family.

Today morning, Dharam Singh resigned and Governor T N Chaturvedi has invited BJP - JD(S) coalition led by Kumaraswamy to form the government. And therefore, BJP would get its first opportunity to form government in Southern India. Quite a dramatic one, that! (So was Atal Behari Vajpayee's first term in PM office!!)

In between all this, I guess, the only thing that we people can pray for is that the new government should pay attention to Bangalore's sagging infrastructure and implement concrete steps to improve it. Ofcourse there would be many more points in their agenda, which may also include improvising the power/electricity system so that we do not see as many load sheddings!

Let us just hope for the best!
