The Karnataka Elections - BJP, Cong, JDS - Who will Call the Shots?
The Karnataka Elections will serve as an indicator for the coming assembly elections. For the first time, Karnataka has had a coalition goverment & it was short lived. The Kichdi government right from the beginning had problems & the assembly was dissolved very early. Though different exit polls are predicting different kind of results, we’ll have to wait & see what the verdict will be. The development of northen karnataka has been a neglected one for decades & with the rampant landgrabbing & other issuses, south karnataka is a different story. BJP is hoping that it could win the sympathy votes of the people & come to power. S.M Krishna is the media savvy face of the party. It remains to be seen what role will Krishna play post elections. JDS is hoping that, it will get just enough seats to call the shots. The UPA led central govt will be watching the election results keenly for the next general elections.
