Karnataka Assembly Election 2014

The Election Commission in Karnataka announced a new app today which will smooth the voting process for the people in the state. The app is one of the firsts introduced in the assembly elections for the 224-seat state, along with "pink booths" for women and third generation Electronic Voting Machines.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has asked his team to crunch numbers and figure out how many jobs were created in the four years of his rule -- a key factor watched by the nation headed for elections in 2019.

The Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen or MIM, which made an impressive debut in the Maharashtra elections, will now focus on Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and other states, said party president Asaduddin Owaisi.

Former Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa, who won Shimoga Lok Saba seat by a huge margin, has submitted his resignation as an MLA to the Speaker of Karnataka Assembly.

Karnataka has witnessed an increase of about 10 lakh voters for the Lok Sabha polls till January 31, compared to assembly elections held in May 2013.

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar has cautioned ally Congress not to be over-confident after its victory in Karnataka assembly elections. He said it was far too early for the UPA to celebrate as the victory was no indication that the alliance would return to power at the Centre after general elections in 2014.

Braving the summer heat, voters across Karnataka headed to polling booths to exercise their franchise on Sunday - resulting in one of the highest turnouts in the state's electoral history at over 71 per cent. But that figure is of little comfort to the tens of thousands more who wanted to vote, but could not.
