When Con won Karnataka elections many people were upset. But there were a few sensible prominent handles who said this was a much needed jolt for both the state BJP unit and the voters. Now they saw how bad is the alternative. Hope they vote sensibly to avoid a repeat of all this at national level


Don't put all the blame on the voters. The state BJP needs to learn the lessons from their mistakes, otherwise, they don't deserve to be elected again

the only people learning the hard way is voters. They get impacted by bad choices as demonstrated here.

You imply INC vote when you say NOTA as well.. 🤣🤣🤣

What happened to the good old pledge that we r all Indians? That Indians can live or visit iany state without applying for visa or permit? Hum apne desh ke kisi aur state me rehne se minority ban gaye kya?

Aur kitne tukdon me baantna chahte hai ye?


I believe so. This is in response to Modiji calling them out. So their response is move state. Become minority and become part of reservations. 🤣🤣🤣. This is same Chidambaram that ridiculed digital payments if you seen the clip of his past speech 🤣🤣🙏🏻🙏🏻..


ek ke baad ek naye novel ideas they are bringing to ruin India smiley18 Inkaaa routine below 🤣🤣🤣

Voters should vote based on the evidence. If there is evidence that the BJP has learned its lesson from previously (eg the reaction to Harsha's murder), they should vote them in


But not otherwise!

They arent voting for the state election this time. That govt is already formed and giving a glimpse of what that party stands for.
the state BJP unit has to make a turnaround n rectify. But voters have to vote starting from tomorrow. For the central govt. if they dont stand for what congress wants to do at national level they need to vote accordingly.

No. NOTA means NOTA. Nothing more, nothing less. Essentially, it's a voter telling all the contesting parties "A pox on all your houses"


If the BJP Karnataka unit enjoys being out of power, that's fine: there are no lessons that they need learn. They can just continue expecting Modi to pull them across the finish line, except that that cult of personality can only go so far before it runs out of gas


Karnataka Hindus are no worse off now than they were when Harsha got murdered, & a whole bunch of youth BJP workers quit the party en masse in protest against nothing being done against his murderers. If Hindus are gonna die regardless of whether Congress or BJP is in power, what good is all that "development"?

Again, they should vote based on what the Modi govt has done in the last 5 years. If they are impressed, by all means, vote BJP. But if not, then the other parties of their choice. But they shouldn't vote for or against Modi based on what the Siddaramaiya govt has been doing


My bottom line: don't be a locked vote for any party, be it BJP, Shiv Sena or anyone else just b'cos you are Hindu. That's a surefire way of being taken for granted & having your priorities pushed aside. This is not just about Hindus & BJP: in the US, conservatives used to be taken for granted by the GOP & got screwed, until Trump came along. Luckily, in the US, you have the system of primaries, where voters get to pick their candidates for various offices. Since that's not there in India, one has to pick b/w parties

people have tried not being locked to one party. Thats why states like Karnataka and Raj have a merry go round of govts every election where all is not merry for people finally. Wahi system chalta rehta hai aur khaane waale khaate rehte hai. Only the names change. If the earlier one has tried to do any good at all the next one reverses. Like the infra projects in Bangalore which r now on hold.

And we have seen hybrid govts at the centre too.
so no thanks
