KCR and Jagan experiencing Karnataka tensions. Seems like K sword is hanging on AP CM Jagan Mohan Reddy and Telangana CM KCR. It is known that Karnataka went to polls and this state elections is regarded as the semi-finals to the 2024 general elections. The ruling BJP and opposition Congress fought a bitter battle and left no stone unturned to emerge victors. The counting will start on 13 May 2023 and almost all the exit polls predict a hung assembly with Congress having a slight edge.
Everyone knows that the ruling BJP will explore all possibilities to form the next government if it emerges a close second. Knowing Modi and Amit Shah, this will happen at any cost. It is known that BJP is keen to make inroads into the south and they view Karnataka as the gateway to the south.
Losing a high-profile state like Karnataka just before the general elections will dent its prospects. BJP is trying to make inroads in Telangana and his going hammer and tongs on CM KCR and BRS party as KCR is aiming to make an impact across the country. BJP is waiting for the right time to strike with full power in Andhra Pradesh where it is maintaining a stoic silence despite AP CM Jagan and YSRCP is facing strong anti-incumbency wave.
If BJP comes to power in Karnataka by winning the elections, it will go all out against KCR with full vengeance in Telangana and will also explore possibilities to explore anti Jagan front in Andhra Pradesh. Under these circumstances it has to be seen how KCR and Jagan will react to BJP's salvos.
