Modi was billed as BJP's chief campaigner in the state. He came to coastal districts last week and was met with poor crowds and even poorer response to his speeches so much so he started to stammer and forget his speech.
He then cut short his campign and flew back to Ahmedabad swearing never to return.
Smelling defeat, he did not want to campaign and spoil his chances as BJP's PM hopeful for 2114 Lok Sabha polls.
And still there are some diehard BJPwallahs who think their party will win in Karnataka, hope when the party itself has given up hope and cncentrating on defending Mumbai-Karnatak region
