CM poster for Shivakumar outside KPCC office fuels Karnataka Congress leadership buzz

Bengaluru, May 13 (UNI) A large poster projecting Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar as the next Chief Minister has been put up outside the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee office in Bengaluru, adding fresh momentum to leadership speculation within the ruling party.
The development comes amid renewed Congress leadership buzz in Karnataka after Public Works Department Minister Satish Jarkiholi indicated that the party high command would turn its attention to the state after completing organisational matters related to Kerala, reviving discussions on cabinet reshuffle and internal balance of power.
The poster prominently positions Shivakumar in a leadership framing that goes beyond routine celebratory hoardings typically seen in party spaces. The messaging is being read in political circles as a clear projection of him as a "CM face", even though there has been no official endorsement from the party leadership.
