Manglauru, May 15: The Bharatiya Janata Party in Dakshina Kannada wrested six seats from the Congress in the 2018 Assembly elections — the results of which were declared today.

The BJP won in Mangalore City South, Mangalore City North, Bantwal, Puttur, Belthangady and Moodbidri Assembly constituencies — held by the Congress.

In 2013 had won only Sullia constituency in the district. This time the BJP candidate not only retained it but also increased his winning margin.

Of eight Assembly constituencies in the district, the BJP won seven and the Congress retained the Mangaluru (erstwhile Ullal) seat.

Meanwhile, the seven defeated candidates including former minister B Ramanath Rai and K Abhayachandra Jain have demanded an enquiry into the poll rigging and EVM tampering.

After the results were declared, the seven defeated MLAs led by B Ramanath Rai lodged complaint with the returning officer claiming that they suspect EVM tampering.

“We were confident of winning all 8 seats in Dakshina Kannada. The results are shocking. We demand an impartial inquiry into the possibilities of EVM tampering,” Mr Rai said. He was accompanied by J R Lobo and B A Mohiuddin Bava, the defeated candidates of Mangaluru City South and Mangaluru City North respectively.

Cong. Govt was very good and fulfilled all the promises, good in administration and Overall development and one of the top most Govt in India, and list goes. but still BJP win the election in spite of corrupt leaders, hate mongers and looters. How it is possible?
What is the Reason? Unknown?  Think of it. there is no Anti Cong. Ale,  in karnataka
There is no any major complaint against rulers during periods. one of the best performed govt.
It is very difficult to think that people of karnataka is not ignorant and hate mongers

If we analyse the Reasons may be

1) People may not concern about Janakeeya govt and development work
2)EVM magic may be?
it is not possible to prove EVM tampering because it is highly technical and Election commission and all its engineers may be fully controlled by Sangh Parivar. so there is no value for complaint. 
To whom we complaint? 
It could be hidden agenda to rule India and its state through EVM. even supreme court and justice is loosing its value. Democracy is almost in end stage

There is a lesson to think. Analyse....
Think......think.......think...... think 

Find out the reason......

Bengaluru, Jul 16: Former union minister and Senior Congress leader Veerappa Moily on Wednesday said that if at all there is a political future for Sachin Pilot it is in the Congress party.

While speaking to news agency, Moily said Sachin Pilot achieved everything by being in Congress party.

"Sachin Pilot became MP, union minister in UPA-II, PCC president in Rajasthan and Deputy Chief Minister of Rajasthan. Whatever grievances you have, it needs to be resolved within the forum of the party. There is no hurry for Sachin Pilot. If at all there is a future for him it is in the Congress party. He has to realise that. He says he won't join BJP, it is good," Moily said.

The former Union Minister Moily further said that Pilot could not become Chief Minister as in Congress, the high command sends an observer and opinion of MLAs is ascertained, be it in Madhya Pradesh or Rajasthan.

"The leader who enjoys the support of elected MLAs is made Chief Minister," Moily said.
On July 14, Congress party had sacked Sachin Pilot from the post of Deputy Chief Minister of Rajasthan and also from PCC president.

The Rajasthan Congress is in turmoil over the past few days. State Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has blamed the BJP for attempting to destabilise the state government by poaching MLAs. The Congress government in the state is facing a political crisis after simmering differences between Pilot and Ashok Gehlot came out in the open.

A controversy broke out in Rajasthan after Special Operation Group (SOG) sent a notice to Pilot to record his statement in the case registered by SOG in the alleged poaching of Congress MLAs in the state.
