Karnataka Chief Minister DK Shivakumar expanded his cabinet on Sunday by inducting 19 MLAs, bringing the total strength to 33 ministers with one vacancy remaining. The new list includes seven ministers from Scheduled Castes, a record for the state, and no Brahmin minister for the first time. Several senior leaders were left out of the expansion. A last-minute change saw S S Mallikarjun replace Mankal Vaidya on the list. According to The Hindu, the expansion has renewed the 'insider-outsider' debate, with over a dozen of the newly sworn-in ministers identified as 'migrants' and many legislators who missed out being described as 'original Congressmen'.
