Interestingly, Nikhil took complete responsibility for his defeat in the Lok Sabha Polls. 'If anyone has to be blamed for the result, It has to be Me not MLAs, MLCs, CM, JD (S) Supremo Deve Gowda. I apologise to My Karyakartas for disappointing a lot of them because people have rejected not anyone else. Congress-JD (S) Government allotted Rs 8,671 crore to Mandya District in this year's budget. Thanks to 5,76,400 voters who supported Me. Technically, I might have lost the election but gained a lot during the whole journey'.

This post of Nikhil Kumar won him lot of appreciation from all the sections of people. He showed Political Opponents needn't have to behave like Rivals and maintain good relations as well.
