Having sensed to fail the floor test B S Yeddyurappa resigned as chief minister minutes before the floor test was scheduled in Karnataka Assembly thus paving for a Congress-JD(S) alliance dispensation.
Addressing the assembly Yeddyurappa thanked voters and affirmed that BJP would win all twenty eight seats in the upcoming Lok Sabha General Election in 2019.
It may be mentioned that the Supreme Court had on Friday ordered a floor-test in the K'taka Assembly on 19 May, harshly slashing the fifteen-day window given by K'taka Governor Vajubhai Vala to BJP Chief Minister Yeddyurappa to prove majority.
Later Governor Vajubhai Vala invited H D Kumaraswamy, State President of JD(S), to form the government. Kumaraswamy will take oath on Wednesday.
