Yathindra, son of Siddaramaiah, stated that his father's preferred candidates were overlooked during the Karnataka Cabinet reshuffle.

Yathindra Siddaramaiah, son of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, has stated that Rahul Gandhi assured him a place in the cabinet. This comes amidst speculation about his potential role as Deputy Chief Minister.

The Karnataka cabinet has taken shape with 13 ministers, including a mix of experienced politicians and new faces, sworn in alongside new Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar. This marks the formation of the new state government.

He says he might not be able to visit Varuna constituency frequently; adds that his son will take care of the constituency in his absence.

Yathindra Siddaramaiah, son of the Chief Minister, will miss out on the Deputy CM post but is slated to receive a cabinet berth in the Shivakumar government. The Deputy CM position will go to senior Dalit leader G Parameshwara, who is also scheduled to take the oath of office.

Yathindra Siddaramaiah is seeking a cabinet post, asserting it aligns with a 2023 power-sharing agreement, as Congress leaders negotiate the structure of the new ministry.
