BJP wins Karnataka!

BJP has won the Karnataka Assembly elections, winning 110 seats out of the total 224 seats.

Congress, and those despicable local sons of the soil in Janata Dal (Secular) managed only 80 and 28 seats respectively. This will be BJP's first government in the south. People say this is the sign of things to come in the coming union elections. Congress politicians have been vehemently calling this a local issue having no bearing at the central level, but I don't believe a word of that. Congress has lost state elections in most states in the last 4 years, I suppose they are all local elections too, and Congress is probably hoping to ride on its 'successes' of reservations and minority appeasement into its next term at the center.

I am happy to see that the Gowda family has been reduced to nothing. I suppose that's inevitable when you are a two-faced, deceitful politician. I am really hoping the BJB grabs on this opportunity, and does great work in Karnataka, because this will have a good effect on its LS poll chances.
