Speculation Surrounds Potential Power Shift in Karnataka: The 'November Revolution'

Karnataka's political circles are abuzz with rumors of a change in leadership as Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's tenure is scrutinized. While no timeframe was set during his appointment, discussions have surged around a power-sharing deal with Deputy CM Shivakumar. Party officials emphasize that the final decision rests with the Congress high command.

Speculation is rife within Karnataka's political landscape regarding the possible tenure alteration of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. G Parameshwara, the state's Home Minister, emphasized the lack of a set timeframe for Siddaramaiah's leadership initially, confirming that any change is contingent on the Congress high command's discretion.

Amid widespread conjecture about a potential power-sharing arrangement with Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar, Parameshwara urged the party leadership to resolve the growing confusion. He reiterated the party's commitment to abide by the high command's decision, clarifying that discussions of leadership change are rooted in speculation.

As local Dalit leaders voice aspirations for greater representation, calls for a Dalit chief minister have emerged. However, party insiders reiterate that the high command retains ultimate authority over any leadership adjustments or shifts, with many party members prepared for various potential outcomes.
