A fresh internal concern is emerging within the Karnataka Congress, with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah reportedly expressing his dissatisfaction directly to Rahul Gandhi over the controversial sting video and its political fallout. Sources tell NDTV that Siddaramaiah questioned the investigation, alleging that it has failed to identify those behind the sting and an alleged attempt to malign him. The discussion also reportedly touched on the Congress's defeat in four MLC seats, with the possibility of the controversy contributing to the setback being raised. Rahul Gandhi is learnt to have assured Siddaramaiah that he would look into the matter internally.
