Speaking to the media in the city on Sunday, Patil stated, "There is nothing unusual about my resignation from the CM’s Political Advisor post. I had been considering stepping down for a while, and I have now done so."

He cited concerns over the Governor’s intervention as one of the reasons for his resignation. However, he dismissed any claims of dissatisfaction, asserting that such reports were the creation of the media.

"Funds from the guarantee schemes are not reaching my constituency, but that does not mean I am dissatisfied. I have conveyed everything to CM Siddaramaiah in my resignation letter, but I will not disclose those details publicly," Patil added.
