The mother and child are reportedly well. The birth of this girl brought immense happiness to the Shivakumar family, where relatives, friends, political leaders and party workers all gave their wishes to the Deputy Chief Minister. And D.K. Shivakumar reportedly got the happy news when he was attending official and political meetings. He is said to have left the programme halfway through and rushed to the hospital to be with his daughter and family at the special time.
The newly posted news quickly caught on as a rallying point among Congress leaders and supporters, many of whom messaged congratulatory messages on social sites. He is a busy and politically savvy figure who involves himself regularly in Karnataka politics; Shivakumar is popular for handling party as well as government issues.

Family members claim the new member of the family has made the family happy. Karnataka’s most powerful statesman, D.K. Shivakumar, who is now Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister, is also president of the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee. He is said to live well with his family, despite his exhausting political work.
Not only was news of his becoming a grandfather widely covered in politics and the news media, but there was also much happiness about him. The hospital has also reportedly provided the family with all medical care and privacy. The hospital is receiving greetings from guests and supporters.
