By: Tupaki Desk | 12 May 2018 5:48 AM GMT
The polling has been started in Karnataka since this morning for the State Assembly. After vigorous elections campaigns of the major parties in Karnataka 4.96 crore voters are going to cast their vote to elect the new state government.
Political analysts are saying that the Karnataka election result can change the face of national politics. The election results will be announced in three days. Usually, state elections have nothing much to do with national politics. But this time the situation is different and it may shape the future of national politics. Congress has been continuously facing defeats in several states and if Congress loses this election the party will surely be gripped with despair.
The situation of another national party BJP is also not encouraging. They have taken the Karnataka elections seriously because they wanted to give an answer to the increasing criticism towards BJP. Moreover, they are trying to prove a point by achieving power in the Southern state. As Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan assembly elections are around the corner, the win in Karnataka is very much important for BJP. On the other hand, the defeat will send negative signals because 2019 elections are also nearing.
As Karnataka elections have become crucial, let us have a look at the top-10 aspects
1. Polling is going on today, elections results will be announced on May 15.
2. Out of 224 assembly constituencies elections are conducted for 222 constituencies.
3. Any party needs 123 seats to form the government in the state.
4. Congress.. BJP are confident of achieving the majority.
5. To know how many voters are waiting at the polling centers, they have created an app.
6. There is no need to stand in big queues at the polling centers as the voter can easilly know the information with the help of the app.
7. Fifty constituencies are witnessing the triangular fight and the result of these 50 seats are crucial for the government formation.
8. Siddaramaiah will become CM if Congress wins, Yeddyurappa will become CM if BJP wins. In case of a hung assembly JD(S) leader Kumaraswamy has the chance to become a CM.
9. CM Siddaramaiah is contesting from Chamundeswari.. Badami constituencies. Ex-CM Yeddyurappa is contesting from Shikaripura, ex-CM Kumaraswamy is contesting from Chennapatnam.. Ramanagara.
