Hubli: Karnataka's 2012-13 annual budget proposals will presented to the state assembly on March 9, Chief Minister DV Sadananda Gowda said on Friday. Speaking to reporters on his arrival to attend a function in Hubli, he said preparations for budget presentation were on.
Gowda, who would be presenting his first ever budget as Finance Minister sought to spike rumours over change of guard in the state and asserted "I will be presenting the budget on March nine. Nobody should have (any) doubt over it".
Gowda's predecessor BS Yeddyurappa has been reportedly making efforts to stage a comeback as chief minister, a post which he was forced to demit office on July 31 last after BJP central leadership axed him following his indictment by a Lokayukta report on illegal mining.
Yeddyurappa has been mounting pressure on the BJP leadership and also his supporters for a 'suitable position' in the party.
