The tussle over the Chief Minister's post continues among ruling leaders in Karnataka.

The story begins in 2004, when the Congress, JD(S), and BJP contested the Karnataka Assembly elections. None of them secured a majority. In this situation, the JD(S) became the kingmaker and formed a government in alliance with the Congress. This alliance introduced a new political equation in the state's politics.

According to official sources, the FIR lists charges under sections 120B (criminal conspiracy), 403 (dishonestly misappropriating property), 406 (criminal breach of trust), and 420 (cheating) of the Indian Penal Code.

The main contest in this by-election is between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Following the BJP's strong performance in the assembly elections held earlier this year, this by-election has become a matter of prestige for both parties.
Delhi's air has once again become toxic. The Air Quality Index (AQI) in major areas like India Gate and Kartavya Path recorded 222, which falls in the 'poor' category. Meanwhile, the AQI in the ITO area reached 269, which is considered severe pollution. Data released by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) has once again raised concerns among the residents of the capital.
The problem of air pollution in Delhi becomes severe every year with the arrival of winter. Vehicle exhaust, dust from construction sites, industrial pollution, and stubble burning in neighboring states cause air quality to deteriorate rapidly. This year too, a thick layer of smog lingered from tourist spots to government areas in the capital, clearly demonstrating the severity of the situation.
