In the Karnataka assembly elections, BJP started well. But suddenly the number of BJP came down to the number of votes under 112, so that the BJP has a shortage of more than 6 MLAs to form the government.
JDS chairman Deve Gowda has accepted the proposal of the Congress and has claimed the formation of the government.

In this, three independents have been elected, while the JDS and Congress figure can exceed the majority, Congress has begun to form the government, Sonia Gandhi has started discussions with JDS HD Deve Gowda.
We accept the mandate of the people. We bow our heads to the verdict. We don’t have numbers to form govt. The Congress has offered to support JD(S) to form govt: G. Parameshwara, Congress. #KarnatakaElections2018 pic.twitter.com/C4Hn3rtYGl

Congress is leading in 73 places, while JDS is leading in 41 seats. So, the number of seats awaiting Congress and JDS is 114.
It is said that the Congress can support JDS outside the party to form government. Therefore, political equations are also changing because of the change in the last phase of Karnataka, but Amit Shah, who is the BJP president, will be able to calm down.
