Will abide by KCR's decision: Koppula Eshwar

Dharmapuri MLA Koppula Eshwar on Monday announced that he would abide by the decision of Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao on the fate of his political career.

Speaking to media persons after meeting the Chief Minister at his camp office here, Eshwar clarified that he had not insisted for a berth in the cabinet. He admitted that there many contenders for the post and KCR was facing difficulties in pacifying everyone. He said that the Chief Minister has briefed him about the situation and assured him of healthy growth in his political career. He said he was completely satisfied with KCR's assurance and would abide by all his decision.

It may be mentioned that KCR has appointed Koppula Eshwar as the party's Chief Whip. However, his non-inclusion in the cabinet, to be expanded on Tuesday, triggered massive protest in his Karimnagar district. Eshwar's statement on Monday clearly suggests that he would accept the post of Chief Whip.
