| Low voter turnout till 9 am as polling for 3 Lok Sabha, 2 assembly constituencies underway | | | Agencies
The polling for three Lok Sabha and two assembly constituencies in Karnataka began on Saturday, with the ruling Congress-JDS coalition facing a litmus test. The outcome of the polling is expected to have a bearing on the state's political scene.
The three parliamentary constituencies are -- Bellary, Shimoga, Mandya and the two legislative assembly constituencies are -- Jamkhandi and Ramanagaram.
The polls are significant as the coalition partners, who have decided to contest them together, have termed it as a "prelude" to the May 2019 general elections and called for a similar "grand secular alliance" against the BJP at the national level. BJP which has been questioning the longevity of the coalition government has predicted its fall once the by-poll results are out. |
