Former chief minister BS Yediyurappa has been given cabinet-rank status by his successor Basavaraj Bommai. An order was issued on Saturday, which said he will enjoy the status till Bommai remains at the helm. This is the first time in Karnataka that such a status has been accorded to an ex-CM without him holding a statutory post.
