Karnataka CM D K Shivakumar Opposes Congress Proposal for Political Affairs Committee
Karnataka Chief Minister D K Shivakumar has opposed a proposal by KPCC president B K Hariprasad to form a Political Affairs Committee (PAC) aimed at enhancing coordination between the Congress party and government. The PAC, supported by Hariprasad and former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, would include senior leaders and address issues like the Bidadi AI City project amid farmer opposition. Shivakumar argued the existing government and party coordination was sufficient, opposing the committee ahead of local body elections.
