The parties which had got the second and third largest number of seats first joined together to form a Government, thereby preventing the party which got the largest number of seats from forming a Govt.
Then No.3 broke in order to give the CM's post to the heir apparent of their party. They took the support of No.1 and then entered into an agreement to give the CM's post to No.3 after the first half of the balance tenure.
Now No.3 has ditched No.1 after enjoying its stay in the top. Who knows, No.2 will again come and support No.3 to keep No.1 out.
Something (partly) similar happened in the Central Govt. in 1996 and one of the major beneficiairies of that game is also the key player / beneficiary of today's game.
Let us hail Indian democracy ! Some innocent may be telling that democracy is as per the will of people. Let us ignore such naive people and go ahead with our smart ways.

Well Said!! Legally this should be changed by avoiding the coalition government. The party with the highest no. of seats must be invited to form the government in case of hung assembly or parliament. There by govt will be free in taking decision and also to avoid such drama in future. I want the HC or SC should intervene and try to impose law.
