Siddaramaiah's survival trick

(NOTE: This article was originally published in the India Today issue dated August 4, 2025)Over two years as a Congress CM, the one thing Siddaramaiah hasn't been able to shake off is dogged speculation about a mid-term change of guard. For that, he has his own partymen to thank. Case in point: the fresh spell of theorising spurred by a cryptic comment by cooperation minister K.N. Rajanna, a Sidda loyalist, about an 'upheaval' in September. It took multiple visits by AICC Karnataka in-charge Randeep Surjewala to tamp down on the buzz, even if tenuously. Amidst parleys with MLAs, Surjewala told reporters on July 1: 'Some of you asked you taking opinions on a leadership change. The answer is clearly no,' he said, flanked by deputy CM D.K. Shivakumar, the one biding time for the top then, the CM appears to have bolstered his image on a few key fronts. He occupied pride of place at the party's OBC advisory council meet in Bengaluru on July 16, leaving little doubt about the value placed on his appeal among the underclasses. There, the party adopted the Bengaluru Declaration, demanding a national caste census a la Telangana, ending the 50 per cent cap on reservation, and quotas in private educational institutions.A day previously, he had scored another personal win on a sticky issue: a protest over moves to acquire 1,777 acres of farmland near Devanahalli, 40 km from Bengaluru, for an aerospace park. A 2022 notification, under the previous BJP regime, had triggered an agitation that didn't let up for three years. After the final notification this year, more activists rallied to the cause. THE PRO-PEOPLE TRICKSiddaramaiah's government first sought to negotiate a middle ground, offering to pare down the area to be acquired. Then the CM finally announced the acquisition would be dropped entirely, winning applause from agitators and freeing the Congress from a tricky feelgood phase was capped on July 21, as the Supreme Court dismissed an appeal by the Enforcement Directorate on its money-laundering charges against the CM's wife, B.M. Parvathi. After its case sparked a raging controversy, she had returned the housing sites allotted to her by the Mysore Urban Development Authority in 2021, and then successfully challenged the ED summons in the Karnataka High the SC has issued a strong caution to the agency against being 'used' for 'political battles'. Says the CM: 'This verdict has exposed the malice behind the case and unequivocally cleared our names.' Siddaramaiah called it a painful chapter—a useful metaphor for a whole phase he seems to have turned the page on. Well, at least for to India Today Magazine- EndsTune InMust Watch

'When Will We Take PoK Back': Cong MP Gaurav Gogoi Responds To Rajnath Singh On Pahalgam, Op Sindoor

A stormy faceoff between Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi shook the Lok Sabha during the debate on Operation Sindoor. Gogoi asked what every Indian is wondering: Why did India pause its military strikes when Pakistan was begging for a ceasefire? Was this victory or surrender? He grilled the government for failing to explain how terrorists crossed into Pahalgam and killed 26 civilians. Rajnath started the debate by saying India paused the operation only after achieving its strategic goals, and warned that any future provocation would trigger a fresh offensive. He invoked Krishna and the Sudarshan Chakra, declaring that India has changed the rules of engagement. But Gogoi kept pressing: How many jets were lost? Why no push for PoK?#rajnathsingh #gauravgogoi #operationsindoor #pahalgamattack #modivscongress #ceasefiredebate #loksabhaclashes #pok #surgicalstrike #rahulgandhi #modidoctrine #parliamentfaceoff #nationalsecurity #indianpolitics #trendingindia #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews Read More
