Major Political Shift In Karnataka: Siddaramaiah To Resign, D.K. Shivakumar Set To Become New Chief Minister Daily Udaipur

Bengaluru, May 28: A significant political shift is underway in Karnataka. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is set to resign from his position today at 3 PM. A crucial meeting of ministers was held at his residence in Bengaluru this morning, where he informed cabinet members of his decision.

During the meeting, Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar was also present. An emotional moment unfolded when Shivakumar touched Siddaramaiah’s feet, followed by a warm embrace from the Chief Minister. This gesture is widely interpreted as a clear indication of a leadership change.

Minister H.K. Patil confirmed that consensus has been reached on D.K. Shivakumar’s name as the next Chief Minister. Discussions regarding this transition have also reportedly gained final approval from Congress leadership.

Sources indicate that Siddaramaiah had requested an appointment with Governor Thawarchand Gehlot. However, the Governor is currently out of Bengaluru due to personal reasons. As a result, the Chief Minister may submit his resignation to the Raj Bhavan office directly.

According to constitutional procedures, if the Governor is unavailable, the Chief Minister can still submit a written resignation to Raj Bhavan officials via email or in person. The Governor will formally accept the resignation later. Until the resignation is accepted, the current Chief Minister remains in office.

Political discussions regarding this leadership change have intensified over the past few days. The likelihood of D.K. Shivakumar assuming the Chief Minister’s role is now almost certain. Political observers across the country are closely monitoring this development.
