• Questions remain over whether Siddaramaiah will complete his full five-year term or if Deputy CM D.K. Shivakumar (DKS) will assume leadership under a rumored rotational CM formula.
• Both leaders recently visited Delhi amid speculation over a leadership change but maintained silence due to a high command gag order.
• Congress insiders suggest leadership decisions may wait until after Bihar polls, where OBC votes could be impacted by any reshuffle since Siddaramaiah is viewed as an crucial OBC leader nationally.
