G Parameshwara Supporters Demand Dalit CM in Karnataka
Some people who support G Parameshwara, a leader in the Congress party, went to Delhi to protest.
They want him to be the next Chief Minister of Karnataka, a state in India.
They think he should be the leader because he has a lot of support from a group of people called SC/ST.
But there are other leaders who also want to be the Chief Minister, so it's not clear who will get the job.
The protest shows that there are different people in the party who want power.
Supporters of G Parameshwara protested in Delhi demanding his appointment as Karnataka's next Chief Minister.
They advocate for a Dalit leader, highlighting Parameshwara's strong backing within the SC/ST community.
The protest comes amid internal power struggles within the Congress party in Karnataka.
Deputy CM DK Shivakumar is also vying for the Chief Minister's position.
The controversy began when the government reached its halfway mark, sparking speculation about a leadership change.
