Chennai: Weeks after Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee suspended MA Salim and warned former MP VS Ugrappa for badmouthing state party president DK Shivakumar in front of a live microphone at an event, Shivakumar was caught chit-chatting with former CM Siddaramaiah in front of a live mic.

During an event to mark the death anniversary of former PM Indira Gandhi on October 31, KPCC chief DK Shivakumar and former Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah were purportedly talking about having a Sardar Vallabhai Patel portrait also in the hall, and the conversation caught on the mic has created a buzz due to a special mention of "BJP".

In a viral video, Siddaramaiah can be heard speculating BJP's criticism for not installing Sardar Patel's portrait along with Gandhi's because October 31 is also the birth anniversary of the country's first deputy PM. He asked Shivakumar to get Patel's photo as well for the event.

If anyone had doubt how much the Nehru Dynasty hated Sardar Patel, this video clears it.

"We never keep Patel's picture on this day," Shivakumar is heard on the live mic, responding to Siddaramaiah. However, the event later had the photograph of Patel also.
