Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], December 6 : Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa is set to hold a lunch meeting at his residence with state BJP in-charge and party National General Secretary Arun Singh on Sunday.
They are likely to discuss the issue of Cabinet expansion in the state. Arun Singh will meet Chief Minister Yediyurappa before going back to Delhi.
Last month, Yediyurappa had indicated that the Cabinet expansion may take some more time as the high command is yet to hold talks regarding the reshuffling and expansion of the Cabinet.
Earlier on November 19, the Chief Minister had met BJP President Jagat Prakash Nadda in the national capital.
On November 12, a meeting of senior BJP MLAs was held at minister Ramesh Jarakiholi's residence amid speculations of a Karnataka Cabinet reshuffle. More than a dozen aspirants are waiting to be included in seven vacant chairs.
