Bengaluru: The Karnataka electorate mandates BJP to pilot the State government engine for the next five years. Latest trend assures simple majority for the BJP. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah trails in both constituencies. Obviously, it is divisive politics that has caused Congress to bite dust and lose its base in a large number of constituencies it was representing in the Assembly till now. Yet, Congress may not learn a lesson. Yedyurappa will be the next Chief Minister.
