The Swabhimani Samavesha, which was converted to the Janakalyana Swabhimani Samavesha, promises to be a Congress show.
The question now is whether Siddaramaiah will abide by the Congress high command's decision to transfer power after two-and-half years to Shivakumar.
There were reports that a pact had been made at the high command level when the Congress came to power in 2023, which has also been claimed by Shivakumar.
Responding to the issue at KR Pete, CM Siddaramaiah on Wednesday said there was no such agreement at the high command level with regard to a change in guard.
"There was no pact as such, but we will abide by the high command's decision (in future)," was his reply to reporters.
