Congress is also looking to win 130+ seats in the next state assembly election, but still unable to show united front with senior leaders striving to be seen as followed to be in the line of chief minister post.
It is not only the former CM Siddaramaiah who led the congress govt for years, Even D K Shivakumar did as a President of KPCC. But still many seniors on the list.
Gap between Karnataka congress leaders widens again in battle for CM post.
The party high command has yet to announce the candidate name for the upcoming Elections
The controversy over the CM post rose after the Siddaramaiah’s followers announced a month-long programme in his honour called Siddaramotsava. Which is seen as an attempt to send a message to the party high command, ahead of polls.
Rahul Gandhi is likely to participate in the event.
Polls are going to be held in Karnataka next year and congress is preparing for the elections fight, to grab on the power from the hands of BJP.
