A group of Congress MLAs from Karnataka has arrived in New Delhi to meet with the party's high command, advocating for a cabinet reshuffle. The delegation includes prominent figures such as T.B. Jayachandra, S.N. Narayanaswamy, and K. Shadakshari. Jayachandra described the visit as a routine political engagement focused on organizational issues, emphasizing that there is no leadership crisis within the state unit. The MLAs aim to discuss their demand for ministerial representation and a reshuffle, which they believe is overdue as the government has only two years left in its term. Multiple-term MLAs are particularly vocal about this demand, citing previous assurances from party leaders that a reshuffle would occur after 2.5 years. Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has acknowledged the desire for reshuffling, indicating that there is nothing wrong with party leaders seeking ministerial positions. The internal dynamics within the Congress government, particularly the power-sharing agreement, have led to ongoing discussions between Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar to manage potential tensions.
