Karnataka Congress leaders have urged Rahul Gandhi to caution party members and state ministers against publicly claiming the CM’s post in Karnataka, amid ongoing leadership uncertainty. The letter, signed by current and ex-lawmakers, stresses that such claims harm the party’s image and stability. This appeal comes as speculation about a potential leadership change grows due to legal proceedings.
Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah’s ongoing battle with corruption charges has spurred an internal race within the state Congress unit. This led to some leaders putting their hats in the ring for the CM post. Channagiri MLA Shivaganga Basavaraj slammed senior leaders for publicly positioning themselves for the top job. But, he himself came out in support of Deputy CM DK Shivakumar.
