Karnataka Swearing-in Ceremony: Rahul Gandhi, a key Congress party leader, reiterated his party’s commitment to a clean and non-corrupt government during the swearing-in ceremony of the newly-elected Karnataka government. He credited Congress’s victory to their support for marginalized communities, including the poor, Dalits, Adivasis, and backward classes. Gandhi highlighted the difference between Congress’s truth-driven approach and the BJP’s alleged reliance on money and power.
Gandhi assured that the promises made during the election campaign would become law in the first cabinet meeting, held shortly after the ceremony. Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar were sworn in as Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister, respectively. Siddaramaiah, previously serving from 2013 to 2018, took the oath in God’s name, emphasizing his commitment to justice. Shivakumar invoked his spiritual guru, Shri Gangadhara Ajja.
Siddaramaiah’s second tenure as Chief Minister begins with a renewed focus on inclusive governance and social justice. The Congress party aims to uplift marginalized communities and fulfill their needs. The government’s task now is to implement its agenda and deliver on its promises to the people of Karnataka. The public will closely observe their efforts to provide a clean and non-corrupt administration while working toward the welfare of all citizens, particularly the marginalized and underprivileged.
