Amid Congress leaders in Karnataka openly discussing possible change of Chief Minister in the state, All India Congress Committee president Mallikarjun Kharge said it is up to the party high command to decide on such matters and that one should not create any unnecessary problem.
According to PTI, Kharge was responding to media queries about some Congress leaders in the state claiming about a change in the post of chief minister in October.
“See, that is in the hands of the high command. Nobody can say here what is going on in the high command. This is left to the high command and the high command has got power to take further action. But unnecessarily one should not create problem,” he told reporters in Bengaluru.
