Siddaramaiah's Remarkable Political Journey: From Janata Parivar to Karnataka's Longest Serving CM

Siddaramaiah, Karnataka's Chief Minister, is set to become the state's longest-serving CM. Originally a staunch anti-Congressman, his political journey has been transformative. Overcoming challenges, he has served nearly 2,792 days as CM across two terms, equaling Devaraj Urs' record.

After intense negotiations with his deputy, Congress stalwart Siddaramaiah is poised to make history as Karnataka's longest-serving Chief Minister.

Once a strong anti-Congress advocate rooted in the 'Janata Parivar,' Siddaramaiah's journey to this milestone is extraordinary, marking a significant political transformation for the 77-year-old.

As he enters his second term, Siddaramaiah will surpass the record of the late Devaraj Urs, noted for his tenure as CM, recognized for advancing social justice and land reforms in Karnataka.
