BENGALURU: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah lost his cool when asked about the possibility of Deputy Chief Minister and State Congress President D. K. Shivakumar taking over as Chief Minister on Friday.
When asked whether a change of leadership was likely in November as the Congress-led government completes half its term, Siddaramaiah grew visibly irritated and retorted, “Who has made a statement in this regard? Where have they said it? Did they tell you?”
When reporters referred to media reports, the Chief Minister angrily asked, “In which media has it appeared? I read all the newspapers. Is there any newspaper I don’t read?”
