Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has firmly stated that there is no disagreement between him and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar. He said both leaders are united, working together, and will continue to run the government jointly in the future as well.
Addressing reporters after having breakfast at Shivakumar’s residence, Siddaramaiah repeated that both he and Shivakumar will follow the decisions of the Congress high command regarding leadership matters. “Whenever the high command decides, Shivakumar will become the Chief Minister,” he added.
This breakfast meeting was seen as a strong display of unity, especially at a time when discussions about the Chief Minister’s post had created political tension. A few days earlier, both leaders had met over breakfast at the Chief Minister’s residence to ease concerns within the party.
Siddaramaiah said, “There are no differences. D.K. Shivakumar and I are united. We run the government together and will continue to do so in the future.” He also reminded that during the earlier meeting held on Saturday, both leaders agreed to respect and follow whatever decision the high command makes.
The renewed show of unity aims to send a clear message that the Congress government in Karnataka remains stable and harmonious.
