They only decide the CM,&#8221; he said, adding, \u201cHigh command has made it clear that there won\u2019t be any leadership change as of now. I would like to make it clear that Siddaramaiah will remain CM for 5 years. I don\u2019t see any reason for change in leadership.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">Responding to Yathindra\u2019s remarks, Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar siad, \u201cI am very happy, let good things happen for the state\u2026 let good things happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">The remarks come amid speculation within the Karnataka Congress over a possible mid-term leadership change, with sections of the party suggesting a power-sharing formula between Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar. The two leaders recently met on two occasions at each other\u2019s residence in order kill the speculation about discontent among themselves.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">The Congress high command has repeatedly intervened to contain the narrative, insisting that stability in governance is the priority and urging both leaders to avoid public statements that fuel factional chatter.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3 midgprfd\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3 midgprfdbtn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/dlxczavtqcctuei\/news18\/static\/images\/english\/google-color.svg\" width=\"36\" height=\"36\" alt=\"\" class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3\"\/><span class=\"jsx-ff4fe2ed9527ebb3\">Click here to add News18 as your preferred news source on Google. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-4159909560 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>December 09, 2025, 11:24 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-ee90caf6118df965 jsx-4159909560 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/politics\/\">politics<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> \u2018Siddaramaiah Will Stay CM For 5 Years,\u2019 Says Son; DKS Says \u2018Let Good Things Happen\u2019<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
