Karnataka Congress Chief DK Shivakumar, who will soon take the mantle of Chief Minister, revealed that a low-profile swearing-in ceremony has been planned in Bengaluru’s Lok Bhavan on July 3 to avoid chaos in the capital city.
He told reporters that the ceremony will be broadcast live at the KPCC headquarters, as the party is unable to accommodate all leaders at the oath-taking site. When asked if other leaders would be sworn in with him, Shivakumar said, “That I don’t know; whatever the party high command decides will be done."
More details to be added.
