The Karnataka Congress is in anticipation as its leaders wait for the national high command's decision regarding the leadership clash and the much-anticipated cabinet reshuffle. The party's focus will shift to Karnataka after settling the ongoing Chief Ministerial issue in Kerala.

Following the Congress-led UDF's victory in the April 9 polls, the national party has yet to finalize its choice for Chief Minister, sparking considerable speculation and unrest within political circles about a possible leadership change in Karnataka. Senior leaders like Satish Jarkiholi and K N Rajanna have emphasized the need for quick resolution to avert administrative confusion.

Supporters of Shivakumar are hopeful for his ascension due to a reported power-sharing agreement with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah's desire for a cabinet reshuffle could indicate his continuation for a full term. The coming weeks in May are crucial for final decisions, which may shape Karnataka's political landscape.
