Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister and state Congress president DK Shivakumar arrived at Lok Bhavan, the official residence of Karnataka Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot, in Bengaluru on Saturday ahead of the crucial Congress Legislature Party (CLP) meeting, amid heightened political activity over the state's leadership transition following Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's resignation.
Shivakumar's visit to Lok Bhavan comes at a significant moment for the ruling Congress, with the party set to hold a key CLP meeting at 4 pm today to deliberate on leadership and organisational matters.
