NEW DELHI: Denying speculation about a possible leadership change in Karnataka, Deputy Chief Minister and state unit Congress President D.K. Shivakumar on Thursday asserted that there is no "November revolution" and made it clear that he will always remain a disciplined soldier of the party.

He made these remarks while interacting with the media in Delhi, amid swirling rumours about a change of guard as the Congress government in Karnataka nears the halfway mark of its term.

The statement assumes significance as Deputy CM Shivakumar is widely perceived to be eyeing the Chief Minister’s post, with his camp predicting a leadership change in the last week of November, coinciding with the government completing half its tenure.
