Karnataka power tussle| DK Shivakumar arrives at CM Siddaramaiah's residence for crucial breakfast meet

Amid the ongoing power tussle within Karnataka's Congress Government, Karnataka Deputy CM DK Shivakumar arrives at Chief Minister Siddaramaiah at the latter's residence in Bengaluru.

Siddaramaiah's announcement of the crucial breakfast meeting came on a day when his cabinet colleague and party chief Mallikarjuna Kharge's son, Priyank Kharge, said the Congress had the 'sense of timing' to resolve issues.

Shivakumar, for his part, said "he was not in a hurry," even as Siddaramaiah asserted there was no change in his stand.

The opposition BJP warned of moving a no-confidence motion should the tussle continue, while also pointing out at the possibility of a 'dark horse' emerging in the midst of the tussle.

"The party high command had called me and him (D K Shivkumar) and asked us to have a meeting. Hence, I have invited him for breakfast tomorrow. We will discuss when he comes," Siddaramaiah told reporters in Bengaluru.

"There is no change in my stand and I have said I will listen to whatever the high command says. Both of us have said that we will obey whatever the party high command says," he added.

The chief minister also said that he will go to Delhi if the high command calls him. Earlier in the day, Shivakumar, the Congress state president replied in the affirmative when asked if he would go to Delhi and meet the party high command, saying "Delhi is our temple."
