Congress is already past the magic number in the Karnataka Assembly election results. From here, the party looks comfortable to a position where BJP can not even try backdoor tactics.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi took the state election personally after the state leadership failed completely and faced severe allegations of corruption.
The BJP made the contest Modi Vs Congress and did not blink an eyelid giving communal color to the election. The Prime Minister even resorted to twisting by equating Ban on Bajrangdal to insulting Bajrangbali for votes.
Modi even used the ‘Kerala Story’ for votes.
All that went in vain as more than half of the seats where the Prime Minister campaigned went the Congress way.
This is a clear mandate of the people against the Prime Minister and the BJP. The message is clear – You cant coverup inefficiency and corruption using communal politics.
With this the BJP lost its sole seat in Karnataka making the South a BJP Mukt South India. If BJP does not mend its ways, we will see more of such results very often.
