Karnataka CM Shivakumar Allocates Portfolios to Cabinet Ministers

Every state has ministers who take care of different jobs, like schools, hospitals, or housing.

A big leader called the Chief Minister decides which job each minister gets.

The Chief Minister of the state of Karnataka is Shivakumar.

On Wednesday, he gave jobs, called portfolios, to his cabinet ministers.

Shivakumar kept the most important job for himself, which is looking after money, called Finance.

He also kept control of intelligence, law, and city planning.

Zameer Ahmed Khan will now look after housing for people.

U.T. Khader will take care of health and hospitals.

Madhu Bangarappa will look after schools and education.

Giving out these jobs helps the state run smoothly and helps people get the services they need.
