00:00There's support growing for Chief Minister Sidramaya.
00:04Both sides now filing on the pressure and how.
00:07The breakfast meat doesn't change anything and this is a clear indication of that.
00:11Sidramaya supporters are now performing a special puja for the Chief Minister.
00:17This is in Yadgarh of Karnataka that this puja is being performed for Sidramaya to continue as Chief Minister.
00:24We've seen similar images happen yesterday as well with DK supporters doing the exact same thing.
00:28But this right here is the crucial part.
00:32That you have pressure tactics by both sides.
00:34The high command may say bury your differences.
00:37The high command may say bury the hatchet.
00:39Come together.
00:40You know go for those optics of holding your hands and say all is well.
00:44But this is the reality viewers.
00:46That this kind of power games continue with factions being set up.
00:49With all these pujas, hawans and what not being done.
00:54And statements.
00:55Important statements coming in from both sides saying.
00:57We want DK Shukumar to be Chief Minister.
00:59We want Sidramaya to continue as Chief Minister.
01:02And my suspicion is whether this breakfast meat is successful.
01:06And I can assure you that there will be that particular photo op of them holding their hands.
01:11Irrespective of that.
01:12In the next one hour while the breakfast meat is even on.
01:15You're going to continue seeing these kind of images of pressure tactics.
01:18Of pujas.
01:19Of chants for CM and what not.
01:22It changes nothing on the ground except that it makes the high command happy.
01:26Which is what Sidramaya and DK Shukumar want right now.
01:29Their bosses will be the ones who take the call.
01:31So when their bosses tell them get together, shake hands, make up.
01:35They go ahead and do it.
01:36But their demands remain the same.
01:38Their ambitions remain the same.
01:40The fact that Sidramaya said exactly that yesterday.
01:43Sidramaya in fact in that statement which will play out for you.
01:46Will pull that out.
01:47Sidramaya said yesterday very clearly.
01:50That yes the high command has asked me to meet with DK Shukumar.
01:53But I will remain the Chief Minister.
01:55Nothing changes on that front.
01:57And that's a very important message that's come in from the Karnataka CM.
02:01He's not backing down.
02:03Inviting DK Shukumar for breakfast.
02:04Doesn't mean at any point he's willing to say step back and say look DK Shukumar can be made the Chief Minister.
02:11Absolutely not.
02:13He is a veteran administrator.
02:14He is also a masterful politician.
02:17And that's what makes the difference here.
02:19That Sidramaya will say I'll do what the high command wants.
02:21I will go ahead and invite DK Shukumar for breakfast.
02:24But it doesn't change the fact that I want to complete my full term as Chief Minister.
02:28Listen in to exactly what Sidramaya said last night.
02:31It's only a breakfast meeting.
02:36Sir, but what is the high command said to you so far?
02:42High command told me and he also, high command told Mr. DK Shukumar also that we should meet and discuss.
02:52Right.
02:53But all things amicable between you both?
02:55But my stand is whatever high command says I will go by it.
03:00All right, sir.
03:02Okay, let me bring in Sagaraj for more details on this.
03:05Sagaraj, let's break it down for our viewers.
03:08What does this breakfast meet actually do besides the optics?
03:11Is there going to be any tangible takeaway really?
03:14Does it change anything at all in this game of thrones that we've been talking about?
03:18Definitely not.
03:24I mean, it is an open secret that this particular meeting is just an optics, it's just a photo op.
03:29And probably DK Shukumar will talk to him stating that the promises that have been made in the year 2023 stating that you will resign after two and a half years.
03:38He will request him that whatever the transition happens and you should allow to happen smoothly and without any kind of hurdle for him.
03:46And as Nagarjun was mentioning earlier that he might also give office stating that so many people will be accommodated from your camp.
03:53And there might be also cash calculation which will be done.
03:56And he will say that probably he might go ahead and allow one or two deputy chief ministers who can depute him and he can be the chief minister.
04:05And also his camp will be accommodated as a KPCC presence.
04:09So there will be a lot of negotiation which will happen on the dining table when they are having breakfast.
04:14And we need to wait and watch how Sidramaya is going to respond.
04:18So he has categorically mentioned yesterday stating that this particular breakfast meeting is happening because high command have instructed them.
04:26It is not on voluntary basis.
04:27They didn't invite him to have breakfast.
04:29It is because the high command have asked them stating that this is not the culture of Congress.
04:33You should not try to take jive at each other and try to bring a photo op to the media to ensure that you guys are at peace
04:41and you don't have any kind of differences between you.
04:44So it is just a photo op which will be done here in the chief minister's office.
04:49And thereafter, if at all, if they get a call, they will go to Delhi.
04:53And what we get to learn from DCM office is he might leave this afternoon to Delhi.
04:59He will be holding a meeting on Mekedhatu.
05:02It is on a pretext of holding a Mekedhatu meeting.
05:03But everybody is well aware that what is happening behind the scenes in this particular travel to Delhi.
05:11He says, you know, I have a lot of business, a lot of work in Delhi.
