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

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......

Mysuru, Feb 29: More than 7,000 industrialists and entrepreneurs have left the country due to a deficit of trust, and incidents like the violence that rocked northeast Delhi will only affect the economy further, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, founder of Art of Living Foundation, said on Friday.

Sri Sri was speaking at a corporate wellness conference on the theme, 'Wellness and Wellbeing for a Progressive Nation', hosted by CII in Mysuru. He said an atmosphere of fear and mistrust pervades the country and does not augur well for the economy.

"Bankers, too, are suspicious of everyone and not extending loans to industrialists. This has posed lots of problems," he said. "This attitude among bank officials should go as life depends on trust. When there is a deficiency of trust, there is a possibility of the economy slowing down," Sri Sri added

He said society is now facing two important issues - aggression and depression. "Some people stage protests and pelt stones which happened recently in Delhi. This is really unfortunate," he said, adding, "Fear lurks in the nation's capital, which is being used by many to create terror. This will affect the economy. No country will prosper without peace."

Wellness is the need of the hour, he said, adding, "Corporates used to spend half their health to gain wealth and spend half their wealth to regain their health. This isn't good economics. We have to talk and convince people to invest in wellness."
