The Defeat of Saffron in Karnataka ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 The Defeat of Saffron in Karnataka SHIVASUNDAR Vol. 48, Issue No. 21, 25 May, 2013 Shivasundar ([email protected]) is a freelance journalist based in Bangalore. With the debacle of the Bharatiya Janata Party in the Karnataka 2013 assembly elections, the Congress takes over the reins of the state. Blatant corruption, aggressive Hindutva and factionalism has led to the demise of the saffron party in the southern state. A region-wide analysis of the election results show that even though the gains of the Congress are not that dramatic, the voters have delivered a clear mandate. A political analysis of the results indicates a serious setback to the BJP. The 2013 assembly elections in Karnataka have arrested the southern expedition of the saffron brigade by giving a verdict against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The electorate of Karnataka has punished the vulgar display of corrupt and communal practices indulged in by the party after it came to power in 2008. Even though the verdict cannot be construed as a decisive rejection of either the Hindutva politics and corruption or the BJP as a party, considering the other equations at play, it is nevertheless a clear reflection of the resentment of the common man. The results prove, unambiguously, that Karnataka is not Gujarat, contrary to many Delhi-centric theories floated by the national media. There are as many fundamental differences between the two as there are superficial similarities. Though the defeat of the BJP was a foregone conclusion even before the election results were declared, the nature of the electoral performance of the party and a closer study of the nature of its defeat unveils how comprehensive and convincing the rejection of the party has been. While the 2008 victory was considered by the BJP as the opening of the gateway to south India, one can safely say that the gate is shut for some time to come. First, let us take a look at the numbers. Elections were held in 223 out of 224 assembly constituencies. The Congress won 121 seats establishing a simple, but comfortable majority and gained 41 seats over 2008. But the BJP’s performance was so abysmal that it 110 seats of the 2008 elections came down to a mere 40 in these present elections. Though the Janata Dal (Secular) [(JD(S)] also got 40 seats ‒ an improvement of 12 seats over the previous election ‒ its vote share was marginally higher than that of the BJP. Even though the election for the Piriyapatna constituency in Mysore District has been rescheduled for 29 May, it has never been a stronghold of the BJP, and the victory of the JD(S) or the Congress there is a foregone conclusion. There are of course moves and counter moves to attain the status of the prinicipal ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 opposition party in the Legislative Assembly. While Ashok Kheny, a first time MLA and a staunch opponent of Deve Gowda has offered to merge with the BJP to make it the principal opposition party, the JD(S) and the Badavara Shrakikara Raithara Congress (BSR) party of B Sriramulu, which got 4 seats, have sent signals of a merger to check this move. It is obvious that electorally the BJP has been set back by at least 20 years. If we recall, in the 1994 elections the Janata Dal had emerged victorious, and the BJP emerged as the principal opposition party having won 40 seats. The Congress stood third with 35 seats under its belt. An analysis of the vote shares in various constituencies reveals not just the magnitude of BJP’s defeat but how compelled the voters felt to choose an alternative to the BJP. Anti-incumbency of epic proportions The 2013 assembly elections witnessed a record voter turnout of 71.29%, the second highest since 1978 when almost 71.9% people voted. Out of the 3.12 crore votes polled, the Congress won 1.14 crore, or 36.55% of the valid votes polled; an improvement of 1.96% over its tally in the 2008 assembly elections. The JD(S) and the BJP both got got 62.32 lakh votes (though the former got a few more than the BJP). While JD(S) increased its vote share by a minor 0.65 %, the BJP saw a loss of 13.96 % of the vote share. To decipher what this vote share means, one has to look at the voter support. In the 2008 assembly elections the BJP was endorsed by 88.57 lakh voters. This time more than 26.25 lakh voters (30% of voters who voted for the BJP in 2008) did not vote for the party. There are multiple reasons for this rejection, and these vary from region to region. B S Yeddyurappa, who broke away from the BJP to form his own Karnataka Janata Paksha (KJP), clearly affected the BJP's prospects in a few regions. The BSR Congress party of B Sriramulu, another breakaway faction of the BJP, also severely hurt the BJP in the central Karnataka region. But it is also true that the BJP vote base suffered a huge setback in many areas which were impervious to the Yeddyurappa factor. Lingayats Votes get divided in Mumbai Karnataka The major gains for the BJP in the 2008 elections came from the Mumbai Karnataka region where the dominant Lingayat community is numerically strong. When the BJP got 40 seats in 1994, a mere four seats came from this region. But by 2004, with Yeddyurappa heading the BJP, the tally in this region rose to 24 and then to 34 seats in 2008. The single biggest factor that helped the victory of the BJP in 2008 was the “betrayal” by H D Kumarasvamy (a Vokkaliga) in 2007 when he refused to vacate the chief minister’s post for Yeddyurappa, a ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 powerful Lingayat leader, as a part of the power-sharing agreement between the BJP and JD(S). Yeddyurappa used this to polarise the Lingayat votes in favour of the BJP in the 2008 elections. Even this time Yeddyurappa, after quitting the BJP and forming his own party, concentrated his campaign in this region with the singular agenda of teaching a lesson to “the party which stabbed him in the back”.1 The result was disastrous for the BJP. It could capture only 13 seats in the region, a loss of 23 seats as compared to its tally in 2008. Even its vote share decreased by 8.5%. While Yeddyurappa’s Karnataka Janata Party (KJP) could win only two seats here, it gained 10.3% of the total votes polled. The Congress also improved its vote share by a considerable 3.5% in this region. This suggests that the Lingayats did not support the KJP en masse and saw the Congress as a viable alternative to the BJP.

  • Change in Rural Karnataka Over the Last Generation
    Draft: Not to be quoted CHANGE IN KARNATAKA OVER THE LAST GENERATION: VILLAGES AND THE WIDER CONTEXT James Manor Institute of Development Studies, University of Sussex 1 I. INTRODUCTION This paper examines changes that have (and have not) occurred – at the village level in Karnataka where most or the state’s residents live, and at higher levels when they impinge upon villages – since 1972. Throughout this discussion, we often encounter an oddity. Substantial changes have occurred on many (though certainly not all) fronts, but most of them have not resulted from conscious decisions by political leaders to induce dramatic change. With a small number of exceptions, political leaders have been distinctly reluctant to attempt marked changes of any description. They have not remained inert - nearly all governments have introduced changes. But almost all have proceeded quite cautiously, concentrating almost exclusively on incremental change. Four exceptions to this tendency are worth briefly noting here at the outset -- because they were important, but also to indicate how few of them there were. a) This story begins at a point – in 1972 – when Chief Minister Devaraj Urs (with the help of Karnataka’s voters) achieved a substantial, startling change. He broke the dominance that Lingayats and Vokkaligas had exercised over state-level politics since Independence. b) In 1983, the state’s party system changed when the Congress Party lost a state election for the first time. Since then, the alternation of parties at state elections has (with one notable exception) been then norm. c) After 1985, a Janata government generously empowered and funded panchayati raj institutions.

  • Karnataka's Recent Experience Gopal K Kadekodi and SV
    POWER OF VOTING FOR DEVELOPMENT: Karnataka’s recent experience Gopal K Kadekodi and S V Hanagodimath1 PREAMBLE: Beauty of democracy is its voting power by the people, for the people and in ruling by themselves. Apart from ‘Justice, Liberty, Equality and Fraternity’ are standing as the institutional pillars resolved to be guaranteed to every citizen of the country, the driving motto behind a democratic process of seeking votes from the citizen is to deliver welfare through ‘development’ to all of them2. Where do we stand with this democratic power of voting today? Keeping this question in mind, in an earlier monograph of CMDR (Number 73, 2014), the same authors had analyzed the state election paradigms in Karnataka during the period 1999 to 2013 with some specific questions. The major questions addressed and analyzed were: First, a question was posed: ‘whether the race between the political parties at the constituency levels resonate the voices of people on their socio-economic development needs, either stated or delivered’. Considering all the elections since 1999, this question was then analyzed with the spatial or geographical spread of development status (measured using a Comprehensive Composite Development Index, CCDI) and votes earned by the contesting and/or wining political parties (or elected candidates). The major findings from four assembly elections then arrived in the 2014 Monograph are summarized in two tables, reproduced below, as Tables 1 and 2. It was clear from the analysis then, that Janata Dal Secular (JD(S)) had concentrated mainly in poorly and middle level developed regions of the state, over time; the Indian National Congress (INC) had spread its pitch evenly all over the state, specifically concentrated in poor and middle level developed regions.
