The ceremony, attended by Congress top brass, CMs of three states, and outgoing CM Siddaramaiah, took place on Wednesday at Lok Bhavan. Shivakumar, who ascended to the position after leading the Congress to victory in the 2023 state elections, emphasized his commitment to youth leadership and a new era for Karnataka.
