Siddharamiah Congratulate DK Shivakumar: The ongoing tussle in Congress regarding the CM’s chair has stopped. After the resignation of Siddaramaiah, DK Shivakumar will take oath as the new Chief Minister of the state on June 3. Earlier in the meeting held on Saturday, the MLAs elected DK Shivakumar as the party leader. Now on this occasion, former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has written a congratulatory message to DK Shivakumar. On his part, DK Shivakumar has also replied to his congratulatory message on X.

Hearty congratulations to Comrade DK Shivakumar: Siddaramaiah

In a post shared on X, he said that Comrade D.K. Hearty congratulations to Shivkumar. Dear Shivkumar, As a colleague, I have closely observed your indomitable energy, organizational acumen and your unwavering loyalty to the Congress Party. My heartfelt wish is that all these qualities should be used for the betterment of the people of the state.

Siddaramaiah said that Karnataka not only ranks first in the country in terms of revenue, but has also emerged as a model for equitable distribution of wealth, power and opportunities. It is a matter of pride for all of us that every scheme launched by us is being adopted and implemented by other states as a model.

Siddaramaiah said that the opportunity I got to serve the people of Karnataka as the Chief Minister for a total of eight years, gave me the opportunity to develop the state into a prosperous, self-reliant and self-respecting state, and it is a matter of pride for me. The responsibility of taking this chariot of development forward is now on your shoulders. I am confident that you have the necessary determination, ability and foresight for this.

The responsibility of the state is now on you: Siddaramaiah

Siddaramaiah said that at a time when the entire country is suffering from the fear of economic insecurity, the people of the state are also worried about their future. The responsibility of taking the state on the path of development along with instilling confidence in them through capable governance is now on you. In recent times, the Congress party has faced some political setbacks at the national level. We can win or lose the election. But we should never lose ideologically. I believe that if a political party loses ideologically, it cannot win elections and will cease to exist.

Siddaramaiah said that along with the development of the state, it is our collective responsibility to restore the glory of our mother-like Congress Party. ‘Samaras Bharat’, built on the strength of sacrifices and struggles by senior leaders of the Congress Party, is being broken in the name of caste and religion. Question marks are being raised on the Constitution itself. Those who question the government are being suppressed. The people who killed Gandhi are now bent on glorifying Godse.

The only and right way for us to save the country is to resolve to strengthen the Congress Party. The party which has adopted the values ​​of equality, harmony, social justice and secularism enshrined in the Constitution as its ideology. Empower him ideologically from the grassroots level. We are passing through a period where we will have to start a second freedom struggle to keep the unity and integrity of the country intact and to maintain the dignity of the Constitution. In this struggle, not only the legislative party, but seven crore people of the state will stand with you.

Claimed to form government before the Governor
DK Shivakumar expressed his gratitude to the party leaders in his post. Posting on X, he said that he feels proud to have been unanimously elected as the leader of the Congress Legislature Party in the CLP meeting held in the Assembly today. I met the Honorable Governor along with Siddaramaiah and other leaders. Formally presented his claim to form government in Karnataka. We are committed to serve the people of the state with complete loyalty, honesty and dedication.
