Karnataka News | Siddaramaiah Camp Pushes For Son’s Promotion In Karnataka Power Shuffle
As the Congress leadership works to finalise Karnataka's high-stakes political transition, sources told NDTV that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's son Yathindra Siddaramaiah could be in line for a bigger political role as part of the broader power-sharing formula. The move is being viewed as a possible effort to balance Siddaramaiah's political interests and retain the support of his influential AHINDA social coalition even as the party weighs elevating Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar to the top post. Behind closed doors, Congress leaders are believed to be discussing multiple accommodation options, including cabinet positions, organisational roles and even a possible Rajya Sabha route for Siddaramaiah himself. With the leadership keen to avoid internal friction during the transition, the future role of Siddaramaiah's son has now emerged as an important piece in the complex negotiations shaping Karnataka's political reset.
