New Karnataka CM, Siddaramaiah, Sworn In as Chief Minister

Siddaramaiah has been sworn in for his second term as the Chief Minister of Karnataka, along with his Deputy CM D K Shivakumar, and eight other ministers following the Congress party's victory in Karnataka Assembly elections. The inauguration event held in Bengaluru's Kanteerava stadium was flooded with people and was also attended by political figures and prominent stars. Siddaramaiah, who previously held the post from 2013 to 2018, will serve his second term. One important challenge for him will be choosing a balanced Cabinet from multiple communities and generations of legislators. The administration will implement five guarantees including free power and public travel for women, and financial aid for youth and women.
