Karnataka deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar, who chaired the meeting, said all infrastructure projects will now be implemented under the GBA framework, and funds will be allocated accordingly. (PTI)<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on Saturday dismissed reports of his bid for the Chief Minister\u2019s post, stating that people are \u201ctrying to create confusion” as he reaffirmed his commitment to the party. Shivakumar clarified that he had not commented on the leadership issue in Karnataka but had merely talked about the state\u2019s positive prospects.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have not discussed anything regarding the leadership issue. There seems to be a misunderstanding. Some residents mentioned that good times are on the way, and I said to just look at it. It is not that I don\u2019t know; some media people are trying to create confusion. You need not be confused. I know when my time is. My priority is to see that I bring back the Congress government here in Karnataka in 2028,” he said.<\/p>\n

Shivakumar\u2019s statement came after he was being asked several questions about the Karnataka government at a public outreach campaign at Lalbagh.<\/p>\n

He further addressed the reports of cabinet reshuffle and dismissed the speculation while confirming that CM Siddaramaiah has called for a dinner meeting of ministers on October 13. However, he asserted that it is a casual gathering.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a long time since I invited the ministers for a meal, so I\u2019ve called them just for that. The dinner has no connection with the cabinet reshuffle,” CM Siddaramaiah said.<\/p>\n

However, Shivakumar last week warned against his colleagues in Congress publicly discussing the change of guard in the Karnataka government. He said that he instructed the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) Working President, GC Chandrashekar, to give notices to those who spoke on the change of Chief Minister.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t need to react to what the BJP says. Let them say what they want to say. I have instructed our working president, GC Chandrashekar, to give notice to them. No one should say anything related to the CM post,” Shivakumar told reporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo need to discuss the CM post sharing. CM Siddaramaiah and I are working together. We are following the guidelines of the high command,” he added.<\/p>\n
