Earlier in the day on Tuesday, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge held talks with several senior party leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, to select the Congress MLA leader. Apart from him and Rahul Gandhi, party organization general secretary KC Venugopal and Karnataka in-charge Randeep Surjewala participated in the meeting held at Khadge’s house. Before meeting Kharge, Sivakumar had said that some people are spreading rumors that I am resigning. That’s not true, that’s nonsense. Congress party is my mother. All our MLAs are with us.

Khadge will consult Rahul and Sonia Gandhi

Earlier on Monday, Congress president Kharge had a detailed discussion with three supervisors of the party, but no decision could be taken. After discussing with all the leaders, Kharge will now discuss with Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi for the final decision. In the May 10 election to the state’s 224-member assembly, the Congress won 135 seats, while the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party won 66 and the Janata Dal (Secular) 19.
