'Will not contest 2028 polls', Siddharaiah cittes, age & corrupt politics

Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday announced that he will not contest the 2028 Assembly elections, citing his age, health concerns and rising corruption in politics. Speaking at an event in Mandya district, Siddaramaiah said he would continue to remain active in public life but had decided against contesting any future elections. "Politics today has become deeply tainted by corruption. Therefore, I have decided not to contest the 2028 Assembly elections. However, I will continue to remain active in politics and stand with the people, raising my voice for their welfare," he said. The Congress leader said people from his Varuna constituency had been urging him to contest again, but he had made up his mind not to fight any future election.

Siddaramaiah also reflected on his five-decade-long political career, saying 2028 would mark 50 years since he entered public life as a taluk board member in 1978. “I have seen both defeats and victories. But I take satisfaction in the fact that I have not acted against the principles I believed in, nor betrayed my conscience,” he said. The veteran leader also mourned what he called the changing nature of electoral politics.
