00:00It's Karnataka expansion on the card.
00:03We know that senior leaders of the Karnataka Congress are rushing to national capital Delhi
00:06because there is possibly an expansion of the government of the state cabinet.
00:11KPCC Chief BK Hare Prasad is heading to Delhi.
00:16Siddharth Ramayyar also is on his way to national capital after the high command call.
00:22We are told there is a long pending cabinet expansion back in focus.
00:25Delhi meeting to decide Karnataka birth.
00:28Aspirant MLA is keeping a close watch lobby.
00:30High command nod to decide the D.K. Shiv Kumar cabinet.
00:34So we are told there is going to be a cabinet reshuffle very soon
00:37and the Delhi meeting to decide Karnataka birth.
00:41Aspirant MLA's are going to keep a close watch on this.
00:44They'll want to know about who possibly will get what portfolio.
00:47High command nod will be to decide D.K. Shiv Kumar's cabinet as well that he doesn't have.
00:52B.K. Hare Prasad who's been a senior leader, who's been a former minister,
00:55KPCC Chief right now is also heading to Delhi.
00:59Siddharth Ramayyar rushing to Delhi after the high command call and this cabinet reshovel could be very crucial.
01:05Remember recently we had the changeover finally where D.K. Shiv Kumar became the chief minister.
01:10Siddharth Ramayyar had to take a step back.
01:12But now while the cabinet has been expanding consistently, there have been new leaders who've been added into the cabinet,
01:17especially the loyalists, but there could be some changes that could be coming in very soon.
01:23We'll try and get clarity on this. What are we expecting? Who possibly is going to keep a close watch?
01:28Especially the ones who've been assured and promised a portfolio but haven't got one yet.
01:32Saghai Raj has all the details. Saghai, so senior leader is coming to Delhi.
01:36But what are you picking up from on the ground in Bengaluru?
01:38Any names that you are picking on who could be included in the new cabinet?
01:47Saghai Raj, so what we get to learn through our sources is that close to 20 ministers will be newbies.
01:53There will be new MLAs will be given charge this time according to our sources.
01:58But still Siddharth Ramayyar camp and D.K. Shiv Kumar camp will try to lobby their own loyalists.
02:05So we need to wait and watch how it is going to turn around.
02:07Because last time whoever was being sworn in as the minister, most of them were from Siddharth Ramayyar camp.
02:13And this time D.K. Shiv Kumar probably will float his loyalist name in the meeting.
02:20And much before Siddharth Ramayyar and B.K. Ari Prasad could reach Delhi,
02:24CM D.K. Shiv Kumar will be flying from Bengaluru.
02:27He'll be reaching early. He'll be holding meetings with the leaders.
02:30And probably tomorrow we might get a final list of this particular cabinet meeting.
02:36Because all three, B.K. Hari Prasad, KPCAC President, former Chief Minister Siddharth Ramayyar
02:42and Chief Minister D.K. Shiv Kumar, all three will be in Delhi.
02:46They will be meeting the high command and they will chart out the final list of cabinet expansion in Delhi.
02:54Tell me that this will also be about whether D.K. loyalists get the birth or Siddharth Ramayyar loyalists get
02:59the birth.
02:59Do you think there's going to be some level of competition here as well and for those close to B
03:03.K. Hari Prasad?
03:08See, as of now, D.K. Shukumar, Siddharth Ramayyar and the high command,
03:12that also includes AICC Chief Mallika Junkarge who is also from Karnataka.
03:16So these three will decide who all will be getting the cabinet birth.
03:20And these are the top leaders from Karnataka including AICC Chief Mallika Junkarge.
03:24So earlier, if you notice, the sources have confirmed stating that they have already informed the outgoing ministers
03:31that they will be in power for two and a half years.
03:35But still, many of them have been re-inducted in the cabinet in D.K. Shukumar, Tanya.
03:42So we need to wait until how many more new people will be coming.
03:45That will be the big surprise in the state of Karnataka.
03:48Saga, I keep tracking all the latest, all the inside information with my colleague about what's expected in the cabinet.
03:53Saga, I keep tracking all the time.
