Karnataka’s political landscape witnessed a major development as Chief Minister Siddaramaiah stepped down from his post amid ongoing leadership changes within the Congress party. His resignation has been accepted by Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot, paving the way for a new leadership decision. A Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meeting is scheduled for 4 PM today in Bengaluru, where the next Chief Minister is expected to be finalized, with DK Shivakumar emerging as the frontrunner. Following Siddaramaiah’s resignation, Shivakumar was seen expressing gratitude and respect towards him, highlighting internal party unity. Reports suggest Siddaramaiah may formally propose Shivakumar’s name during the meeting. Meanwhile, internal discussions indicate possible cabinet adjustments and representation demands from Siddaramaiah’s camp. The leadership transition comes after prolonged speculation over a power-sharing arrangement between the two senior leaders. While Shivakumar is widely expected to take over, the final decision will depend on the party high command and today’s CLP meeting outcome.
