Karnataka’s political landscape is witnessing renewed speculation over a leadership change, with DK Shivakumar intensifying his push to replace Siddaramaiah as Chief Minister. Sources say Priyanka Gandhi Vadra intervened, convincing Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi to consider his claim. Siddaramaiah is reportedly reluctant to shift to Delhi despite an offer of a Rajya Sabha seat and national role. As internal discussions continue, both leaders are expected to meet in Bengaluru, with Congress high command still working on a final decision.
