The Karnataka situation is becoming murkier day by day as the chief minister Kumaraswamy’s position seems to be in real distress.
The developments unambiguously reveal that BJP has the upper say in the entire development.
Hectic parleys in Congress JD( S) camps as well as in BJP are on and every party is trying to take the maximum advantage out of the impending crisis.
As far as the Congress and JD ( U) combine is concerned, the situation is quite cumbersome for them as the Congress and JD( S) dissidents have now shifted their base from Mumbai to Goa, fully determined and committed to support the BJP as they have already extended their support towards the saffron party.
The political situation in Karnataka is really awry and in confusive state with Congress and JD ( S) leaving no stone unturned to ensure that their government remains fully intact despite the hard fact that all the 13 dissidents have resigned and have fully committed to stand by the saffron party.
After the resignation of the 13 MLAs the arithmatic at present goes in favour of the BJP especially after the resignation of Nageshwar Rao the only independent MLA and minister in the JD(S) Congress government thus supporting the BJP outrightly.
According to the latest arithmetic as of now the BJP has 105 MLAs and the support of two independents bringing the tally to 107 whereas the Congress, JD ( S) alliance is reduced to mere 104 instead of 118.
This gives BJP, a clear opportunity to form a government in Karnataka.
Meanwhile in Lok Sabha today the union defence minister has outrightly cleared that BJP has no role in the Karnataka crisis as it never believes in downgrading the institutions of democracy and constitution.
The Congress on the other hand responded strongly and forcefully accusing the BJP of murdering democracy by engineering prestrategic defections and using unfair means to topple the democratically elected governments.
Meanwhile, sources reveal that the dissidents have formally made up their mind to ensure the fall of the JD(S) Congress government in Karnataka by backing the saffron party, come what may. What’s your take friends?
