Congress leaders in Karnataka are discussing a possible leadership change. Fresh political discussions have started in Karnataka. Congress leaders are talking about the future of the state government.
Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar are at the center of these discussions. Both leaders are senior members of the Congress party. They have strong support from party workers.
Reports say Siddaramaiah’s supporters want a special political formula. They are asking for more than one Deputy Chief Minister if DK Shivakumar becomes the next Chief Minister.
The Siddaramaiah camp believes this plan can keep balance inside the party. Supporters say many leaders should get equal importance. They also believe this can stop internal problems.
However, reports claim DK Shivakumar may not fully support this idea. Sources say he wants fewer Deputy Chief Ministers in the government. He is believed to prefer a simpler leadership structure.
NCR Times understands that Congress leaders want to avoid any big fight inside the party. They are trying to protect unity in the government. Party leaders know that internal disagreements can create problems later.
The Congress government came to power in Karnataka after winning the 2023 Assembly elections. Since then, political experts have often discussed a possible “rotation formula.”
According to these reports, Siddaramaiah would serve as Chief Minister first. Later, DK Shivakumar could take over the position. But the Congress party never officially confirmed such an agreement.
Now, these discussions have returned once again. Political activity has increased in both Bengaluru and Delhi.
Many important meetings are taking place. Senior Congress leaders are speaking with both groups. Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge are also believed to be involved in the talks.
Party leaders want a peaceful solution. They do not want public disagreements between senior politicians. Congress leaders know that unity is very important before future elections.
Supporters of DK Shivakumar believe he deserves a chance to lead the state. They say he worked very hard during the election campaign. They also believe he played a major role in helping Congress win Karnataka.
At the same time, Siddaramaiah’s supporters want him to continue having strong influence in the party. They do not want his power to become weak after any leadership change.
Some political experts say the Congress party is trying to satisfy both groups. This is why the idea of multiple Deputy Chief Ministers is being discussed.
Karnataka has seen multiple Deputy Chief Ministers before. So, the idea is not completely new for the state. Earlier governments have also used similar formulas to maintain balance among leaders.
NCR Times reports that Congress leaders are carefully planning their next steps. They want to keep the government stable and avoid confusion among party workers.
Some reports also suggest Siddaramaiah may get a larger role in national politics in the future. However, no official announcement has been made yet.
For now, Congress workers and supporters are waiting for a final decision. Many people across Karnataka are curious about who will lead the state in the coming months.
The political situation remains very important. The next few days may decide the future of the Karnataka Congress government.
Until then, all eyes remain on Siddaramaiah, DK Shivakumar, and the Congress leadership.
