On Thursday, 62.18 percent polling was held for the by-election for 15 assembly seats in Karnataka. Krishnarajapete assembly constituency recorded the highest turnout of 80 per cent and KRPura got the lowest 37 per cent. Now the fate of a total of 165 candidates will be decided on December 9 on the day of counting. There is a triangular contest between BJP, Janata Dal-Secular (JD-S) and Congress in 12 seats. For the BJP government of BS Yeddyurappa to win a majority, it is necessary to win seven seats in the by-election.

According to media reports, Kumaraswamy's coalition government collapsed in July due to the resignation of a total of 17 MLAs of Congress and JD-S. After this BS The BJP government was formed under the leadership of Yeddyurappa. The then speaker disqualified these MLAs from contesting elections. But the Supreme Court in November allowed these disqualified MLAs to contest elections.

For your information, let us tell you that elections were held in 15 of the 17 seats. BJP and Congress fielded candidates for all 15 seats, while JD-S did not field candidates from Yelapur in Uttara Kannada district, Hosakote seat in Bangalore Rural and Athani seat in Belagawa. Thus the triangular on 12 seats and the Congress-BJP on three seats is a straight fight. It is a matter of fact that out of the 15 seats which are going to the assembly elections, in the 2018 assembly elections, 12 seats were won by Congress and three by JD-S. . In such a situation, it is a challenge for the BJP to win these seats. However, BJP has fielded only MLAs who won elections on Congress and JDS tickets.
