Meanwhile, Kharge, who had camped in Karnataka for almost a month for the crucial Assembly polls is returning to the national capital ahead of the CLP meeting scheduled later in the evening at Shangrila Hotel in Bengaluru.

Shivakumar -- have shown interest for the top post in the state.The Congress had won 135 seats in the southern state, winning 55 more seats than 80 it got in the 2017 Assembly polls.
Counting of votes took place on Saturday after the polling for the 224-member Assembly took place on May 10.
