Ahead of the crucial Karnataka assembly elections on 12 May in all the 224 constituencies of the state, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and BJP’s Chief Ministerial candidate BS Yeddyurappa have trained their guns on each other. With the poll date fast approaching, both are confident of gaining people’s mandate in the state.

Siddaramaiah, who is confident of a clear victory and a comeback for the Congress government in the state, has denied any possibility of a hung assembly. Siddaramaiah has said that he believes his government has fulfilled all the promises made to the people of the state and that his party’s good work in the state will pay off.
