Well, Kumaraswamy is the second CM to take oath in 2018 assembly within a week after Yeddyurappa stepped down without facing floor test in May 2019.

Congress General Secretary in Karnataka KC Venugopal said the party would get 22 portfolios of the 34-member cabinet, while 12 portfolios, including the chief minister's portfolio, would be given to the JD(S). The portfolio allocation will be decided after the floor test on 24 May. They will be sworn in after the floor test slated for Thursday.
