Karnataka's Cabinet Expansion: A Calculated Balance of Power The expansion of the Karnataka cabinet, led by Chief Minister DK Shivakumar, marks a significant shift in the state's political landscape.
Two months into his tenure, Shivakumar has inducted 19 new ministers, taking the total strength to 33. This move sets a record for social representation and addresses weeks of speculation.
A notable aspect of this expansion is the absence of Brahmin representation in the cabinet for the first time since Karnataka's reorganization.
