Despite of negative and relentless anti BJP and Anti Yediyuriyappa campaigning by Cong and JD-S, BJP won again.
The ruling BJP in Karnataka today bagged 12 zilla panchayats and the opposition Congress and JD-S captured four each, while the verdict for the remaining 10 such bodies was fractured.
BJP also secured majority in around 70 Taluk Panchayats, while Congress and JD-S bagged around 30 TPs each. In more than 40 other TPs, the verdict was fractured.
BJP, which had bagged only one ZP (Bellary) in 2005, had expected at least 20 ZPs in its kitty this time.
"We have achieved considerable success (in the local body elections)", state BJP president K S Eshwarappa said.
ANTI BJP, ANTI NATIONAL MEDIAs FAILED AGAIN
