Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge has quelled speculation over a possible leadership change in Karnataka, stating that no date has been set for a discussion on the matter.

Addressing a press conference, Kharge emphasized that any decision regarding leadership would be taken collectively by the party's high command after due consultation.

He cautioned against misinterpretation of his remarks, stating that the Congress leadership follows a consultative process before arriving at any conclusion.

Kharge noted that no timeline had been finalized, and any eventual decision would be binding on all, in the interest of the state.

His remarks come amid ongoing speculation over an alleged understanding for a power transfer to DK Shivakumar when the Congress government completes its halfway mark in November 2025.
