DK called supporters to Delhi, will reach today: DK told Kharge – nothing less than CM is acceptable; Party choice Siddaramaiah

On Wednesday, DK Shivakumar’s supporters protested outside Rahul-Sonia’s house at 10 Janpath in Delhi with posters in hand.

The Congress high command has taken a decision to make Siddaramaiah the CM of Karnataka. At the same time, DK Shivkumar also does not accept anything less than the post of CM. When two rounds of meeting with Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday turned out to be inconclusive, DK called his supporters to Delhi.

DK’s supporters have been asked to come to Delhi on the first flight itself. If the supporters reach Delhi in large numbers, there is bound to be an uproar here today. DK has clearly told Mallikarjun Kharge that if you want to make him, make him CM, I will not become deputy CM.

Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar met Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday morning and night. Nothing came out of both the meetings.

DK not ready to accept
Earlier on Wednesday, there were reports that DK has agreed with the Deputy CM, Karnataka Pradesh Congress President and two ministries. The high command wants to make Siddaramaiah the CM and they had placed three formulas in front of DK. Now news has come that they have not agreed on anything.

The script of the Karnataka government being written in Delhi this morning kept changing hour by hour. DK told the high command – they can win 20 to 22 seats in the Lok Sabha.

DK-Siddha had a meeting with Kharge and Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday morning, but could not reach a consensus. After this, the preparations for the swearing-in in Bengaluru were stopped.
