Perform or be replaced in cabinet shake-up, DK Shivakumar warns Congress leaders

India Today  

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar made it clear that the Congress party will prioritise result-oriented leadership, warning that ministers and office bearers who fail to deliver on the ground will not be accommodated. Dismissing speculation about the removal of ministers in the upcoming cabinet expansion, he asserted that the party is focused on rewarding those who sincerely work at the grassroots level rather than those who seek influence by lobbying with senior leaders in Bengaluru. “We need people who work at the taluk level, and we don’t need people who revolve around senior leaders in Bengaluru. Addressing queries about the submission of the office bearers' list to the Congress high command, Shivakumar confirmed that while the list was ready, it would not be submitted immediately.
