Siddaramaiah’s son Yathindra has come out in full support of his father completing five years as the Chief Minister of Karnataka

Speaking to the media in Mysuru, on Friday, 28 November, he said the discussion on change of chief minister should not have risen at all.

He also added that he has no information of any power-sharing agreement being arrived at when the Congress won the 2023 Assembly elections.

“Nobody has ever spoken of the power sharing agreement within the party nor has my father mentioned it ever. In case the party high command had given a word, then they will resolve it”

Yathindra also added that under the present circumstances, there was no need to change the Chief Minister as Siddaramaiah was not only giving an able and good administration but also because “there were no complaints or scams”

‘’Personally, I have faith that Siddaramaiah will be the Chief Minister for five years and complete his term,” he added.

On influential religious mutts and seers expressing support to the candidature of DK Shivakumar, Yathindra says, “It is the party and the high command which will decide who should be the CM and we will not react to others’ opinions. Every party worker will abide by what the high command decides”

No-confidence motion

Meanwhile, Opposition BJP is planning to move a no-confidence motion against the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government in the upcoming winter session of the state Assembly in Belagavi.

While announcing the plan in Udupi on Thursday, 27 November, BJP state general secretary and former minister V Sunil Kumar said his party would first discuss the matter with its partners in the National Democratic Alliance.

Kumar, who represents Karkala in the Assembly, however, added that the BJP would not stake claim to form the government even if the Congress ran into trouble.

The Congress has a comfortable majority in the 224-member Assembly.
