JDS made Kingmaker in Karnataka
Karnataka
As the end result of the Karnataka assembly elections, the picture of Hung Assembly is becoming clear. With the trends and seats at the moment, JDS seems to be playing the role of both Kingmaker and King. The Congress has accepted its defeat and has also announced support for JDS and the Kummaswamy has demanded the time for getting the letter written by the Kushwamy to the governor. On the other hand, BJP has also made a claim to form the government. So now everything depends on the governor's discretion. Let's tell you, in the light of the famous SR Bommai versus the Central Government, or what governor can decide on the basis of his discretion ...
A key issue of former Karnataka Chief Minister SR Bommai vs. Central Government can be a nazir in Karnataka. In the case of Bommai case, the court has ordered that the majority decision will not be in the state of Rajasthan but on the assembly board. Generally, the Governor has been giving an invitation to the largest party to form the government while following this directive. If this is the case, then BJP will be invited to form the government, as far as the trends are concerned, BJP 104, Congress 78, JDS plus 38 and other 2 seats are getting feasible. In such a situation, BJP is emerging as the biggest party.
If the governor wants, Congress-JDS can get it
Now you see the second picture of Karnataka. The BJP does not seem to get the majority alone. According to the trends and results of today, Congress and JDS seem to be able to cross the majority (112 seats according to the election on 222 seats). Siddaramaiah has resigned and the Congress has given the offer of a CM post while supporting JDS. Kumaraswamy of JDS has accepted the offer and sought time to meet Governor. In such a situation, if the governor wants the new coalition, after the election, can give a chance to form the government. This has happened recently in Goa, Meghalaya and Manipur assembly elections, despite having the largest party, the Congress-led alliance got an invitation to form a coalition government instead of Congress.
The Governor has to decide who will now fight against Karnataka. If the governor calls for Yeddyurappa to form the government, then BJP will have to prove its majority in the assembly. According to the picture of this technically this majority will not be proved without JDS. In such a situation, the fears of procurement of MLAs can not be sidelined. That is, now all the eyes remain on the decision of Karnataka Governor Vajubhai Vaal.
