The political landscape in Karnataka remains taut as Senior Minister Satish Jarkiholi affirms Siddaramaiah's position as Chief Minister after opposition calls for his resignation. Jarkiholi clarified the Congress central leadership hasn't entertained the idea of Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar replacing him.
Despite the ongoing political stir surrounding the MUDA case accusations against Siddaramaiah, Jarkiholi expressed confidence in the current leadership, alluding to Siddaramaiah's extended tenure, whether for three or five years, while acknowledging the party's central command holds sway over such decisions.
Leadership tensions linger as rumors about a rotational chief minister formula circulate, suggesting Shivakumar could assume the top post mid-term. However, no official stance has been taken. Amidst these speculations, the party showcases a united front, reconfirming their trust in Siddaramaiah's leadership.
