In line with the Congress High Command’s firm directive to end internal confusion and present a united front, both Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar have begun coordinated efforts to signal harmony within the party.
Deputy CM D.K. Shivakumar first visited Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s residence under the pretext of a breakfast meeting a gesture seen widely as an attempt to counter the ongoing narrative of factional differences.
To reinforce this message, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is now scheduled to visit the Deputy CM’s residence as well. These reciprocal meetings are being interpreted as an orchestrated move to convey internal stability during a politically sensitive time.
The High Command has reportedly instructed both leaders to work together and avoid actions that could trigger further speculation about leadership conflict. The visible display of unity from the top leadership is expected to calm down party workers and shift the political conversation back to governance.
