When Rahul Gandhi met outgoing Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah on Tuesday to give him the bad news that his time was up, it was done with sensitivity and attention to details. It was a one-on-one meeting where nobody else, not even party president Mallikarjun Kharge was present. Since it was just the two of them, no word about what transpired inside emerged, till Siddaramaiah himself shared it with his close aides.
The story centers on Siddaramaiah, Karnataka, Chief minister, and Indian National Congress. It has drawn coverage across roughly 301 reports so far.
