Balachandra Jarkiholi is KMF Chairman

Bengaluru: Arabhavi BJP MLA Balachandra Jarkiholi was elected unopposed as the new Chairman of Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) here this afternoon.

The Chairman’s post was a bone of contention between the BJP Government and former PWD Minister H.D. Revanna of the JD(S), as Revanna had eyed the key post after the collapse of the JD(S)-Congress Coalition Government.

Revanna withdrew his nomination before the deadline ended, thus facilitating the unopposed election of Balachandra Jarkiholi, as no other candidate was in the fray, it is learnt.
