The Karnataka Congress is once again gripped by a storm. Despite warnings from the high command, Dy CM DK Shivakumar’s loyalists have reignited the demand for a leadership change, openly declaring him as the state’s future. CM Siddaramaiah hit back strongly, rejecting the “DKS for CM” buzz and insisting there is no vacancy at the top. The clash has put Shivakumar on the defensive, even as he warned his camp against plotting against party unity. This isn’t the first showdown between Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar—two titans vying for political supremacy. With loyalties shifting and whispers growing louder, the big question remains: Is Siddaramaiah’s throne really safe in Karnataka?
