The Congress party is set to formally seal its leadership transition in Karnataka, with the state unit president expected to be elected as the new chief minister during a crucial legislature party meeting. Sources indicate the chief minister designate will take the oath of office on the third of June alongside several new cabinet ministers. However, intense negotiations are underway regarding the cabinet's composition.
The outgoing chief minister is reportedly pushing to retain significant political influence, demanding key portfolios for his family and the establishment of a coordination committee to bridge the government and the party. Furthermore, discussions highlight the potential appointment of two deputy chief ministers to ensure representation across various social groups, including marginalized and backward communities. The incoming leadership is also expected to consult the party's high command in the national capital to finalize the ministerial board, aiming to balance experienced leaders from the previous administration with fresh faces ahead of future electoral battles.
