Cong MLA Claims Shivakumar Will Replace Siddaramaiah as CM After Two-and-half Years
Congress’ Mandya MLA Ravikumar Gowda on Friday claimed that Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar will become the chief minister after two-and-half years of the Siddaramaiah-led government’s tenure. Alleging that a team which was behind the fall of the Congress-JD coalition government in 2019, was now working to lure Congress legislators with allurements like Rs 50 crore and a minister post, and four legislators have already been contacted, he said there is evidence for it and it will be revealed soon. When the time comes, things will be decided.” There was stiff competition between Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar for the chief minister post after the assembly election results in May this year, and the Congress party had managed to convince the latter and made him the deputy chief minister. Stating that four Congress legislators had already been approached, the MLA claimed that former Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa’s former PA, who had joined JD and lost the assembly polls, was among those behind activities to lure legislators.
