HK Patil Urges Congress Silence on Karnataka CM Speculation: “Let High Command Decide”

Amidst renewed discussions surrounding DK Shivakumar as a potential Chief Minister, Karnataka’s Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister HK Patil has appealed to his Congress colleagues to refrain from public commentary on the matter.

Patil Emphasizes Party Unity and Respect for High Command

Patil stressed the importance of party unity and respecting the decisions of the Congress high command. He reminded everyone that Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and the top leadership have already issued a clear directive advising party members to avoid public statements regarding the Chief Ministership.

Focus on Governance, Not Speculation, Says Minister

Patil’s message appears aimed at maintaining party discipline and preventing any internal divisions as the Congress navigates its recent electoral victory in Karnataka. He encouraged everyone to focus on the crucial task of governing the state effectively rather than engaging in speculative discussions.
