The political situation in Karnataka has taken a sharp turn amid intensified speculation over a possible change in the Chief Minister’s post. According to sources, Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar may be considered for the top post, while reports suggest that Congress high command has asked Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to step down and transition to national politics. High-level meetings have been held in Delhi over the past two days, involving senior Congress leaders including Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and KC Venugopal, to discuss the leadership situation in Karnataka. Another round of discussions is scheduled, further fueling speculation of an imminent decision. Sources claim that during the meetings, Siddaramaiah was offered a proposal to move to the Rajya Sabha and take up a national role, effectively vacating the Chief Minister’s position. However, it is being reported that he has expressed disinterest in shifting to national politics and has not agreed to the proposal. According to insiders, he is expected to take a final decision by Thursday. Reports also suggest that Siddaramaiah was not given an extensive opportunity to present his position during the meeting, and the high command conveyed its directive regarding leadership transition. Following the meeting, he reportedly met with senior ministers to discuss the developments. Meanwhile, DK Shivakumar is said to have postponed his return to Bengaluru and remains in Delhi amid ongoing consultations. A possible breakfast meeting between Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah is also being discussed in political circles, which could prove crucial in determining the next steps in the leadership transition. Although speculation continues to grow, there has been no official confirmation from the Congress party regarding any change in leadership. The situation remains fluid, with all eyes on the party high command’s final decision regarding Karnataka’s top political post.
