Siddaramaiah Appointed to Congress Working Committee

New Delhi: In a major political development, the Congress leadership on Monday appointed Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah as a member of the Congress Working Committee (CWC) with immediate effect.

The high-profile induction into the party's apex decision-making body was officially confirmed in a statement released by All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary K.C. Venugopal, noting that Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge had approved the appointment.

The move significantly elevates Siddaramaiah's stature within the national framework, cementing his influence beyond state politics and giving him a direct seat at the table where the party's core strategy and policy decisions are finalized.
