Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge said he has called a high-level meeting to discuss the issue of a possible Karnataka CM change. He added that Rahul Gandhi, CM Siddaramaiah and Deputy CM DK Shivakumar will also attend the meeting. There was reportedly a "power-sharing" agreement between Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar once the government crossed the halfway mark of its five-year term.
