Amid Karnataka Congress unease, the brief life of a Siddaramaiah statue
A statue of former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah was installed by his supporters in Kalaburgi on Wednesday but removed the next day due to lack of permission. Local Congress leaders are unaware of who installed the nine-foot statue, which was placed near a junction named after Siddaramaiah, ahead of Shivakumar's scheduled visit for project launches on Thursday.
