Son says Siddaramaiah will complete 5 yrs as CM

Yathindra says top brass will decide

- NT Correspondent

Expressing confidence that Siddaramaiah will complete a full five-year term as chief minister, his son and Congress MLC Yathindra Siddaramaiah on Thursday pointed out that there are no complaints against his father, nor is he involved in any scams.

Asserting that Siddaramaiah is running a good administration and has the backing of MLAs, he said the Congress high command will decide on the demand from some sections for the CM change.

The power tussle within the ruling party has intensified amid speculation about chief minister change in the state after the Congress government reached the halfway mark of its five-year term on November 20 in the backdrop of an alleged "power-sharing" agreement involving Siddaramaiah and Deputy CM D K Shivakumar in 2023.
