Jayachandra, S.N. Narayanaswamy, and K. Shadakshari. They aim to discuss long-standing demands for ministerial representation, asserting that this visit is a routine political engagement focused on organizational matters. Jayachandra emphasized that there is no leadership question within the state unit, and the focus remains solely on the reshuffle. The MLAs plan to meet senior leaders including Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge to press their case.
