It is coincide or otherwise, the purchase of the new SUV?has come after a baby crow sat on his official SUV?some days ago. The chief minister's office however clarified that the vehicle was booked a month ago. Official sources said that the old vehicle had run 3 lakh kilometers and hence the change. The old one will be returned to the Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms.

Siddaramaiah's new buy however has led to speculations that he got rid of the old SUV to ward off bad omen. On June 2, the crow hit the headlines, as it refused to budge from Siddaramaiah's vehicle (also a white Toyota Fortuner), which was parked at his home office Krishna'. It had sat for 10 long minutes on the bonnet, before it was physically shooed away.

The video footage had gone viral in all regional television channels, with astrologers on the panel advising Siddaramaiah to change his car. They said that he might face problems from the Lord Shani who is mounted on a crow, which is termed as a Shani Vahana'.
