New Delhi/Bengaluru: HD Kumaraswamy has won the trust vote in the Karnataka assembly, ending the 10-day political uncertainty in the state. The BJP walked out of the Karnataka assembly minutes before the trust vote, throwing a dare at chief minister HD Kumaraswamy. "Let's see how long you last," said BS Yeddyurappa, as he staged a dramatic walkout from the House. The Congress and JD(S) combine, who together claim 115 lawmakers, have been assiduously guarding their flocks since the results of the assembly elections were announced on May 15 to prevent poaching by the BJP, which emerged as the largest party in the state but does not have the numbers to prove majority in the House.

But the BJP it seems hasn't given hope of forming the government. "We are 100 per cent sure we will be able to form the government," said Shobha Karandlaje, a BJP parliamentarian from the state and an aide of BS Yeddyurappa. Unable to garner the required number of votes to form Government in the state, Mr Yeddyurappa resigned just two days after taking oath as the Chief Minister. The BJP leader accused the Congress of hijacking the 'People's Mandate.

Mr Yeddyurappa had told NDTV afterwards that the JDS-Congress government  would not last "even three months".
