Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has asserted he's "not in a hurry" for a promotion amid a renewed buzz of leadership change in Karnataka. Accusing the media of twisting his statement, he denied saying that the time has come for him to become the Chief Minister.
"Some media houses are twisting my statement and are trying to create a controversy. I have never said that it is time for me to become the Chief Minister. I'll file a defamation case if anyone twists my statement and broadcasts it," he told reporters.
