 When BJP formed government under [[B.S.Yediyurappa]] in 2019, it was highly expected that Sunil Kumar will be made cabinet minister but his name was missing. His name was again ignored during cabinet expansion in January 2021. Sunil Kumar wrote a letter to State [[BJP]] Party president [[Nalin Kumar Kateel]] expressing displeasure.
 He was later sworn-in as a cabinet minister, under [[Basavaraj Bommai]] and was given the Energy ministry, with additional Kannada and cultural development portfolio in August 2021.
