Andhra Pradesh chief minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu was widely regarded as the richest chief minister in the country by a comfortable margin. But this statistic is going to change now, as we might have a new addition to the list.

Considering the fact that the Congress party in Karnataka is likely to appoint DK Shivakumar, as the New chief minister of the state, he will be the new richest CM in the country.

DK Siva Kumar is already one of the richest MLA in the country as he has disclosed assets worth ₹1413 crore. Now, if he becomes a chief minister of Karnataka, he would become the richest CM in the country by a long margin.

1. D. K. Shivakumar - ₹1,413 crore

2. N. Chandrababu Naidu - ₹931 crore

3. Chandrasekaran Joseph Vijay - ₹603 crore

4. Pema Khandu - ₹332 crore

5. Neiphiu Rio - ₹46 crore

6. Mohan Yadav - ₹42 crore

7. N. Rangasamy - ₹38 crore

8. Revanth Reddy - ₹30 crore

9. Bhupendra Patel - ₹24 crore

10. Pramod Sawant - ₹23 crore

Siva Kumar had been the focal point of Karnataka politics and has been operating as the troubleshooter for the Congress party in entire South India. Now he is likely to get a big promotion as he might be appointed as the new CM very soon.

Considering the dynamic personality that he has, it has to be seen what kind of impact that DK would be having on Karnataka politics in the near future.
