At present, a very bad and shocking news is emerging for the Congress Party from the politics of South India and the election corridors of Karnataka. The results of the recently concluded biennial elections for the Karnataka Legislative Council (MLC) have been officially declared. In these elections, the Congress party which was in power in the state has been completely wiped out and has failed to even open its account. On the contrary, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Janata Dal (Secular) i.e. NDA alliance has performed brilliantly and registered a historic victory on all the four seats contested in the elections. This is being considered a major setback for the ruling party in the political history of Karnataka. Let us know in detail what kind of equations were formed in these Karnataka Legislative Council elections and which party’s candidate has won.
Karnataka Legislative Council elections: Unity of NDA alliance defeated Congress
On October 23, voting was held for four important teacher and graduate constituencies of Karnataka. For political analysts, this election was being seen as a big test of the grassroots coordination and mutual cooperation between the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Janata Dal Secular. The results have proved that this alliance of both the parties has been completely successful on the ground and they have passed this examination with 100 percent marks.
The Congress Party proved to be a complete failure in maintaining the trust of its policies and its support base among the educated class of teachers and graduates of the state. On the contrary, the NDA alliance implemented its strategy very convincingly and hoisted the flag of saffron and secular parties on all four seats. The election results have made it clear at what level an atmosphere of resentment or distrust is growing among the intellectual class of Karnataka against the ruling Congress.
On which seats did BJP and JDS register a spectacular victory?
According to the data and results released by the Election Commission, the BJP and JDS alliance had fielded their strong candidates on all the seats under mutual distribution, who have got resounding success:
-
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) performance: BJP has proved its strength by capturing a total of three important seats. The party has made its candidates win with huge votes in North-East Teachers Constituency, South-East Graduate Constituency and West Graduate Constituency.
-
Performance of Janata Dal Secular (JD-S): NDA alliance’s ally JDS has also registered a spectacular victory in the Bengaluru teachers’ constituency with all its might.

Namoshi) Has once again hoisted the flag of victory. He has given a crushing defeat to Congress Party candidate Sharanappa Mattur.

Will these results bring any crisis to the Congress government of Karnataka?
Even though the results of these Legislative Council elections are not likely to pose any immediate constitutional threat to the stability of the Congress government led by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah in Karnataka, as the party has a clear majority in the Assembly. But political experts believe that this strong and aggressive performance of the opposition alliance in the Legislative Council (Upper House) will become a big political weapon to corner the government in the coming days.
If we look at the mathematics of Karnataka’s 75-member Legislative Council at present, Congress has 38 members, BJP has 24, JDS has 6, one independent and one Chairman, while some seats nominated by the Governor are vacant. After these results, the morale of the state’s main opposition parties BJP and JDS has reached sky high. Describing these elections as a trailer of the public mood, they are preparing to launch a strong attack from the streets to the House against the failures of the Congress government. After this defeat in Karnataka politics, there are full chances of increasing internal strife within the Congress in the coming times.
