Karnataka's new Chief Minister D V Sadananda Gowda today ruled out the creation of a Deputy Chief Minister's post and re-induction of controversial Reddy brothers in the Cabinet.

On his first visit to Delhi after assuming office, Gowda said the central leadership was not in favour of a Deputy Chief Minister as none of the BJP-ruled states have such a post.

"My central party is there. My state party is there. I am not the only one to take decisions on all these things. All the directions given by the central leadership will be (implemented) after consultations," he said in response to a query whether Reddy brothers would be inducted into Cabinet
