‘I will file a defamation case against them if they report’: Read why DK Shivakumar said he will file a defamation case against the media
As Congress deliberates on who should be the chief minister of Karnataka, party state president DK Shivakumar, one of the frontrunners for the post in the southern State on Tuesday said that he would file a defamation case against the media channels which are making false claims over his resignation. Despite Congress’ clear mandate in the Karnataka assembly polls, suspense over the chief minister continues as senior leaders DK Shivakumar, who is the Karnataka Congress’ president, and Siddaramaiah, former chief minister and leader of the opposition are in the race. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today met party president Mallikarjun Kharge who is set to make his decision after going through the Congress central observers’ report, which was submitted yesterday. Asked about his expectations as the state party president, Shivakumar said,” I don’t want to comment on what has happened earlier.
