Smoking & Watching 'Zanjeer', SR Bommai Got CM Post. His Luck Now Shines on Son
BJP leaders wished Basavaraj Bommai on his appointment as the CM of Karnataka on Tuesday.
In 1988, when CM Rama Krishna Hegde quit over telephone tapping controversy, his senior minister SR Bommai was at home smoking cigarettes and watching Hindi movie 'Zanjeer'.
Early 2008 was a difficult year for Basavaraj S Bommai. His father and former chief minister SR Bommai was critical. His party Janata Dal United was in tatters and Basavaraj had no place to go.
According to some insiders, he wanted to go to Congress because it suited his ideology and mindset. But, the then Karnataka Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge was reluctant to take him.
After contemplating for sometime, he knocked on the doors of BS Yediyurappa. The BJP stalwart, who was moving earth and heaven to become CM again and take revenge on the Gowdas for their ‘betrayal’, happily welcomed him and fielded him from Shiggaon on BJP ticket.
That proved to be a great decision for him. BJP rode to power and Yediyurappa made him his Water Resources minister.
