DK Suresh Becomes Bamul Chairman; Eyes KMF Leadership
DK Suresh, the brother of a top politician, is now the head of a milk company in Bengaluru because nobody else wanted the job.
He recently lost an election but won a spot on the company's board.
His political party now controls most of the seats on the board, making his appointment easy.
Suresh might try to become the head of a bigger milk organization next.
However, the current leader of that organization, and some others, also want the job, creating possible conflict.
Some worry about delays in other elections that could affect who gets the top positions.
DK Suresh, brother of DK Shivakumar, became Bamul chairman unopposed.
Suresh won a Bamul board seat from Kanakapura, along with 10 other Congress members.
Congress now holds 11 of 14 Bamul board seats.
Suresh may seek the KMF chairman post next.
Current KMF chairman, LBP Bheema Naik, also aims to remain in his position.
