Ahinda Groups Launch Mysuru Letter Drive Urging Congress to Keep Siddaramaiah as Karnataka CM for Full Term

Supporters urge the Congress high command to end speculation by affirming his five-year mandate.

Overview

  • Hundreds assembled at Mysuru’s Ramaswamy Circle displaying postcards to Rahul Gandhi that asked Siddaramaiah be retained for the entire term.
  • Letters addressed to Rahul Gandhi and AICC president Mallikarjun Kharge sought immediate clarity on Karnataka’s leadership and requested time for an Ahinda delegation to meet them.
  • Postcards cited progress, stability and social justice under Siddaramaiah and asked leaders to "clear the confusion" over talk of a change of guard.
  • Organisers credited Ahinda voters for Congress’s 135-seat victory in 2023 and warned of statewide protests and possible electoral losses in 2028 if he is replaced.
  • State ministers declined to take sides, with G. Parameshwara and Ramalinga Reddy deferring to the high command and M. C. Sudhakar saying he would resign if asked.
