BENGALURU: The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the opposition Congress have already clashed over the controversial Anti-Conversion Bill, Cow Slaughter Bill, and the National Education Policy (NEP), and Karnataka is likely to experience a high-voltage political slugfest in 2022. As the year 2022 approaches, the contest for power is projected to intensify in the run-up to the 2023 state Assembly elections.
According to political Pandits, Karnataka will see a lot of drama in the socio-political arena because of the fierce struggle between the national parties, the BJP and the Congress. Within the party, there is a similar rift among leaders seeking the coveted job of Chief Minister.
In terms of the political careers of former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, the state's old warhorse, and Opposition leader Siddaramaiah, the next state Assembly elections could be a gamechanger.
