After getting a clear majority for Congress in Karnataka, now all the attention has turned towards the point that who is going to be the CM of the state.
Congress who is on a ventilator for so long has got some breather by getting back to form with a thumping majority in Karnataka general elections. The verdict of the people has brought tremors to the BJP camp both in the state and in the central. Now, who is going to be the CM of the state is raising a lot of curiosity among the people of Karnataka? On one side, the veteran and the former chief minister Siddaramaiah and on the other side the PCC chief who has played a crucial role in emerging the Congress victorious in the polls, DK Siva Kumar.
D K Shiva Kumar seems to have expressed that he is against the proposal of sharing the term of the CM post. In fact, he is expecting to get the chance this time for his relentless work in bringing Congress to power again. The Congress party has announced the date of the new chief minister’s oathing ceremony i.e. May 18th. However, the name of the chief minister candidate has not been finalized yet by the high command. Siddaramaiah has a good hold over the administration of the state whereas Shiva Kumar is a close aide to Rahul Gandhi. Both candidates have a good hold when it comes to their communities as well.
Have to wait and see what parameters will be taken into consideration and who will grab the opportunity this time.
