The BJP camp, which was in a shambles until recently in Karnataka, is gaining momentum following a favourable wave generated by the victory in the Assembly elections of three states late last year and in the run-up to the Pran Pratishtha ceremony at the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
Winning the maximum seats in Karnataka seems like an achievable goal, and now the aim is to wrestle power from the state’s ruling Congress party, according to BJP sources. Looking at the developments in the Congress, with a bunch of cabinet ministers targeting Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar by demanding more Deputy Chief Minister posts to cut short his influence, and the appeal by Dr. Yathindra, son of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, that the people should strengthen the hands of his father to help him stay in the post for the full term, very much indicate a tussle for power within their party. And it is only a matter of time, the BJP sources claimed.
Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah have already spoken about the attempts by the BJP to topple the government, similar to how the Shiv Sena, NCP and the Congress coalition government was brought down in Maharashtra in 2022.

Discussions are already underway within the state’s political circles about the BJP’s grand plans to bring down the ruling Congress government after the Lok Sabha polls. Former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy had stated that there are Ajit Pawars and Eknath Shindes in Karnataka politics as well, and anything can happen after the Lok Sabha elections.
The Congress s struggling to pacify its MLAs as sufficient funds could not be provided to their constituencies due to the implementation of guarantee schemes. It is no longer a secret that the BJP is waiting for an appropriate time to strike, explains a prominent leader.
