The fall of Karnataka’s JD (S)-Cong govt
Finally, the chaotic tenure of Karnataka’s JD (S)-Congress government, led by HD Kumaraswamy, came to an end on Tuesday, exactly 14 months after it assumed office. The chief minister HD Kumawaraswamy lost the trust vote by 99-105 and this brought down the curtain on 18-day high political drama in Karnataka. The state assembly has been in commotion since the new house was elected in May 2018. Though BJP emerged as the single-largest party, Congress and JD (S) joined hands to form a coalition government. The ruling alliance was stable and the crisis erupted after Lok Sabha election results on May 23 this year.
The current political situation will pave the way for BJP to form the government under the leadership of BS Yeddyurappa, While HD Kumawaraswamy said he tried his best to win trust motion, but some of his MLA friends ditched him, on other hand, BS Yeddyurappa termed this entire political development as victory of democracy .Yeddyurappa even said that the people of Karnataka were fed up with the JD (S)-Congress government.
Will this recent political development in Karnataka cast its shadow over the government in Madhya Pradesh? There is no doubt; the road ahead for Kamal Nath led Congress government in Madhya Pradesh is likely to be uneven. Congress came to power in Madhya Pradesh in December last year, riding a half-hearted mandate. The Congress won 114 seats in a House of 230, a slim lead over BJP which bagged 108 seats. The Congress was helped by four independents, two BSP legislators and one Samajwadi Party MLA in forming the government. The debacle in the Lok Sabha elections put a dark shadow on present Madhya Pradesh government’s survival. Congress had lost 28 out of 29 seats in the Lok Sabha election in Madhya Pradesh. . The Congress leaders in Madhya Pradesh have also realised that the slender majority is no guarantee for survival. Recently, Veteran BJP leader of Uttar Pradesh Lalji Tondon has been appointed the Governor of Madhya Pradesh. This development also adds fuel to speculations!

It seems, the nature also takes its own course. The saying “as you sow, so shall you reap” applies to all these parties. But still they don’t learn and keep on playing “dirty politics”.
