Speculation over a leadership shift in Karnataka intensified as top Congress officials met state leaders, including Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy D K Shivakumar, to deliberate on upcoming Rajya Sabha and legislative council elections.
Despite Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge calling the meeting to finalize election candidates, the spotlight remained on the prolonged leadership contest in Karnataka and the prospects of a settlement.
Notably, Shivakumar's demand to ascend to the chief ministership, as allegedly promised during the 2023 state assembly elections, remains unresolved, with both Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar, along with Kharge, remaining reticent.
