Karnataka Elections Result 2023: Full List Of Candidates Winners Name Constituency-Wise DECLARED

Karnataka Election Result 2023: As the grand old party began to move closer to victory in the Karnataka Assembly elections on Saturday, jubilant Congress activists around the nation began to celebrate. For the distribution of sweets, the party members gathered at the Congress headquarters in Uttar Pradesh, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Delhi, Haryana, Jharkhand, and Bihar. Additionally, they waved flags and danced to the beat of the drums in the streets. After the Election Commission of India (ECI) released its most recent trends, which showed the party leading in the Karnataka Assembly elections, Congress supporters in Guwahati lit fireworks and handed out treats in jubilation.

The BJP lost power in the Karnataka assembly election of 2023 after winning only 65 seats, which compelled the current chief minister, Basavaraj Bommai, to step down today. It is not yet certain if Siddaramaiah or DK Shivakumar will be the next chief minister under the leadership of the Congress. According to the chief election officer of the state, 73.19% of those who were entitled to vote participated in Wednesday's single phase of voting in Karnataka. Before the official announcement of the results, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai had already admitted defeat.

The BJP gained 65 seats, according to the website of the Election Commission. The JD-S, which aimed to have a decisive impact, only managed to secure 19 seats. Exit polls had predicted a tight race, with the Congress emerging as the single-largest party but falling short of the 113-seat threshold. Congress, however, disproved critics by winning 136 seats with the single-largest majority.

2018 saw neither party win a clear majority. Therefore, Congress and the JD (S) attempted to work together. B.S. Yediyurappa, a BJP strongman, staked his claim and established the administration, but it was only temporary as it was overthrown three days later, just before a vote on a trust motion. Yediyurappa was unable to gather the needed numbers. Following this, the Congress-JD(S) combination formed the government with Kumaraswamy as chief minister; however, the government disintegrated in 14 months as a result of the resignation of 17 members of the ruling coalition, who later joined the BJP and helped it regain power. In 2018, the BJP became the only party to gain more than 100 seats, followed by the Congress with 80 seats and the JD(S) with 37.
