Meanwhile, the Janata Dal(Secular) Chief HD Deve Gowda said, he is keeping his options open and is not, as of now, ready to ‘accept’ or ‘reject’ anything, according to reports. His reaction has reportedly come after the exit polls projected his party as the ‘kingmaker’ in Karnataka.
On the other hand, the BJP's Chief Ministerial candidate BS Yeddyurappa on Sunday said that his party will get a clear majority in Karnataka and there won't be a hung Assembly.
"I have seen the exit polls on various channels. The BJP will form the majority government on Tuesday and the Congress will exit from Karnataka. There is no question of joining hands with anyone," Yeddyurappa told News18, a day after Karnataka voted.
