Shivakumar says Kumaraswamy is set to take away power from Ashok, Vijayendra
Senior Congress leader D. K. Shivakumar told reporters that Karnataka chief ministerial aspirant H. D. Kumaraswamy is preparing to diminish the influence of senior party figures Ashok and Vijayendra. Shivakumar suggested the move reflects internal power shifts within the state’s ruling party, potentially reshaping leadership dynamics ahead of upcoming elections. Analysts say this could reshape Karnataka's policy agenda significantly.
