Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Monday said that the Congress would win at least 15 of the 28 Lok Sabha seats in the State.
“We will win a minimum of 15 seats and the maximum will be 20 seats,” he said while addressing a meet-the-press programme organised by the Press Club of Bengaluru to mark the completion of the first year of the Congress government in the State.
“We are not claiming like the BJP that we are going to emerge victorious in all 28 parliamentary constituencies,” he said.
The BJP and JD (S) formed an alliance and contested in 25 and three seats respectively. The results will be declared on June 4.
On the possibility of a Cabinet reshuffle after the Lok Sabha results, the Chief Minister said there was no plan before him on that. However, the decision would be taken as per the directions of the party high command, Mr. Siddaramaiah said.
Speculations are rife in political circles that the Cabinet would be reshuffled based on the performance of the party in the Lok Sabha elections in different constituencies.
Earlier, the Chief Minister spelled out the government’s one-year achievements and said all the five guarantees had been implemented as promised by the party in its poll manifesto in 2023. The government would continue all the five guarantees for the full five-year term. “There is no question of stopping them,” he said.
