Amid ongoing uncertainties over change in leadership in Karnataka Congress, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's son, Yathindra, kicked up a fresh row on Wednesday, suggesting senior leader and Public Works Department Minister Satish Jarkiholi as his father's political successor. Yathindra's comments come amidst speculations over "November revolution".

Addressing an event in Belgavi, Yathindra said, "He (Siddaramaiah) is at the fag end of his political life.

Suggesting Jarkiholi's name, Yathindra said, "It is difficult to have leaders who are committed to principles, but Jarkiholi is doing his job with commitment. He should continue to do so."
