The issue of whether Chief Minister Siddaramaiah will complete the full term of five years, which was hitherto being discussed at the Congress fora, made an entry into the State legislature on Wednesday with Congress member Basavaraj Rayaraddi declaring in the House that the Congress government would complete the full term of five years with Mr. Siddaramaiah at the helm.
However, the Opposition BJP members remarked in a lighter vein if it means that Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar would not become Chief Minister during this term.
Responding to this, Mr. Rayaraddi was quick to say, “I dont have any objection if Mr. Shivakumar becomes Chief Minister. Let the party take a call.”
