Bengaluru Gears Up for DK Shivakumar's Swearing-In As Karnataka Chief Minister

Bengaluru is witnessing extensive preparations ahead of DK Shivakumar's swearing-in as Karnataka's Chief Minister this evening. The oath-taking ceremony, scheduled at 4:05 PM, is expected to draw nearly 2,000 guests, including top industrialists, CEOs, political leaders, and religious figures. Special traffic arrangements, enhanced security measures, and live-streaming facilities have been put in place as thousands of Congress workers and supporters make their way to the city. While the scale of preparations is massive, Shivakumar has maintained that the event itself will remain a relatively low-key affair.
