Even balancing of regional and social representation will be kept in mind while deciding names, he added.
”Based on these factors, the numbers and names will be decided. Even how many deputy CMs should be made will also be decided in the meeting,” Bommai said.
The chief minister further said that in the current political situation efforts will be made to take everyone together.
”We are hopeful that cabinet making will be fruitful. Not only fruitful, but it should also serve the purpose of serving the people of the State,” he said.
The CM also said some aspirants have met him here and held discussions.
”They also know not everyone can become ministers,” he added.
”We will do it in a balanced way keeping in mind the previous cabinet team,” he said.
Bommai took oath as the chief minister on July 28 after the resignation of his predecessor BS Yediyurappa on July 26.
He is the lone Cabinet member in the government.
