    Its a tight rope exercise for Dr Yeddy, our Operations specialist.
    Every community, every religion, every region disparities need to be looked at.

    My only wish is that Coasts which has 17 BJP MLAs out of 19 should get a better deal.
    Dr Yeddy also needs to recognize linguistic minority like Kamath GSB MLA from Mangaluru and Kodava MLAs Appachu Ranjan and Bopaiah.
