In Karnataka, political temperatures rose after Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar and Chief Minister Siddaramaiah held a closed-door “power breakfast” meeting amid growing speculation of an imminent leadership transition. Shivakumar’s cryptic post invoking JRD Tata, emphasising the importance of “keeping one’s word,” has intensified talk that the Congress high command may soon implement a pre-poll promise to rotate the chief ministership. Party insiders suggest a possible transition timeline before mid-2026, with both leaders publicly maintaining unity. The meeting is seen as a key step in negotiating roles, responsibilities, and a smooth shift in power within the Karnataka government. (PC: AP)
