Karnataka politics has exploded into full-scale drama after Chief Minister Siddaramaiah reportedly informed cabinet colleagues that he is stepping down following instructions from the Congress high command. The shocking development comes after crucial Delhi meetings involving Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, KC Venugopal and DK Shivakumar. With the long-discussed 2.5-year power-sharing formula returning to the spotlight, all eyes are now on Deputy CM DK Shivakumar, who is widely seen as the frontrunner for the top post. Meanwhile, AHINDA and backward class groups have issued warnings to Congress, saying Siddaramaiah’s removal could trigger political backlash across Karnataka.

During the 20-minute meeting, Vijay raised key Tamil Nadu issues, including the controversial Mekedatu dam project proposed by Karnataka.

Vijay also requested permission for Tamil Thai Vazhthu to be played at the start of government events amid debate over the Centre’s Vande Mataram directive.
