The Congress high command on Tuesday put an end to speculations of a likely May revolution in Karnataka government, saying Siddaramaiah will continue to be chief minister. Adressing media outside Indira Bhawan in the presence of Siddaramaiah and Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, AICC General Secretary (Organisation) K.C. Venugopal said there was no truth to the speculation about change in Karnataka chief minister. Whatever speculation you people are doing, that is only speculation. No reality at all, said Venugopal. He clarified that the Congress top leaders' meeting with Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar focused on the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections and Karnataka MLC seats. The candidates of Rajya Sabha and Council seats of Karnataka will be announced along with the other seats like Chhattisgarh, like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jharkhand, like these states. That's all, he added. Ever since the Congress came to power in 2023, Shivakumar's supporters have been seeking his appointment as CM in line with a previously agreed power-sharing formula with Siddaramaiah. Back then, Kharge said that the high command would give the medicine when required. People in the high command Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and I will sit together and deliberate on this...

bengaluru-to-receive-rainfall-until-friday-coastal-karnataka-to-get-relief-from-heat

Bengaluru is set to get a respite from the intense heat, as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted that Karnataka's capital city will experience rain until May 29, Friday. As a precaution, a yellow alert has been issued for Bengaluru throughout the week. Light to moderate rain accompanied by thunder and lightning is expected across the city throughout the coming week, the IMD confirmed on Sunday. The weather office credited a cyclonic circulation over the Bay of Bengal for the sudden change in weather conditions. This cyclonic circulation has created favourable conditions for widespread and continuous rainfall in Bengaluru, IMD officials reportedly said. On Monday, Bengaluru is expected to experience cloudy skies from the afternoon hours, with strong winds blowing at speeds of 40 to 50 km/h in some areas. The maximum and minimum temperatures in Bengaluru are likely to be around 32C and 22C respectively, TV9 Kannada said in a report. The maximum temperature, which had earlier averaged around 34C, has now dropped below 30C in many places, the report added. Karnataka weather news Apart from Bengaluru, yellow alerts have also been issued until May 29 for most districts in North Interior Karnataka, Coastal Karnataka, and South Interior Karnataka by the IMD. In addition, a northsouth trough extending from southern Bihar through Jharkhand and Odisha to the north coast of Andhra Pradesh has also contributed to the weather changes. However, several states grappled with scorching heat on Sunday, with Brahmapuri in the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra emerging as the hottest place in the country at 47.2 degrees Celsius. Delhi recorded a maximum temperature of 43.6 degrees Celsius, 3.4 notches above the seasonal average.
