On June 6, 2025, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah dismissed his political secretary, K. Govindaraju, following a tragic stampede in Bengaluru that resulted in multiple fatalities. The state government announced Govindaraju's immediate removal, signaling a move towards political accountability amid growing public and opposition pressure. Govindaraju, a senior Congress leader and member of the Karnataka Legislative Council, had been a close aide to Siddaramaiah. The opposition BJP has intensified calls for the resignation of Siddaramaiah and other top officials, accusing them of evading responsibility for the incident. (PC: ANI)
