No, Nothing has been discussed thus far. Tomorrow (Tuesday), I'm flying to New Delhi, where we'll talk about everything: DK Shivakumar

For Karnataka, hung assembly has been a customary norm but this time INC passed the test of democracy, where it's actually hanging is the decision to choose a chief minister out of two impactful and strong leaders who are in the race and no one seems to back off. 

Both Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar supporters were spotted shouting slogans and demanding that the Congress party choose their leader as Karnataka's Chief Minister.

The observers spoke individually to all the newly elected MLAs after dinner at a private hotel on Sunday night and completed the process late at night.

Not even 19 rallies and six road shows by PM Narendra Modi could bring the BJP home. Twelve ministers of the outgoing Bommai government failed to save their constituencies.

Shivkumar, seven-time MLA, has won again from Kanakapura with an unprecedented margin whereas Siddaramaiah too has managed to grab his seat in Varuna with good numbers.

"You had gone to every door offering guarantees and promised to fulfill them immediately after coming to power. It's your duty to fulfill them," Yediyurappa said.

BJP utilized all of its top leaders to campaign and even used 'Bajrangbali' to maintain a ground for their support. The Hinduism that seemed to work miraculously for this party most of the time couldn't fetch much for the 'deluxe' leaders who campaigned tirelessly all these months.
