Karnataka had political stability before the bomman janata party came to the scene. Lingayats are just bomman wannabes and think that just because they wear that janiwara (with linga hanging), they will be accepted by bommans as one of them. It will never happen and they'll grow out this fascination for the bomman party. In the meanwhile, political instability here to stay thanks to some clever bomman engineering!

Is it so that, all these people vote with your consent in elections. Where did you get these statistics or is it self invented. Karnataka will get what it deserves if the elections are happening based on such issues and it will become another Bihar or UP like state.

There is catch. This vote even if it doesn't go to BJP, it would be divided among the JD-S, Congress and others. So if BJP can consolidate on other votes, they might eventually end up winning.
