After stepping down as Karnataka's chief minister, Congress figure Siddaramaiah held a meeting with Rahul Gandhi in Delhi. The discussions at Sonia Gandhi's 10, Janpath residence were focused on Siddaramaiah's political future, including his desire to stay in Karnataka and not pursue a central role.

The meeting, devoid of Sonia Gandhi's presence, aimed to strategize the new government formation in Karnataka, potentially securing spots for Siddaramaiah's son and trusted allies. Subsequent discussions involved Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, as party reorganization efforts continue in the state with expected meetings to elect a new chief minister.
