B.J.P emerges as single largest party winning 110 seats 3 short of majority,in a 224 seat assembly.
the exit polls by pro congress media were proved wrong by the people of Karnataka which has shown congress as winner.
the congress with 80 seats was second and J.D.S.
Got only 28 seats.
this is first time B.J.P will form government in south on its own.
