Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday deflected a question on asking Deve Gowda's Janata Dal Secular or JDS for help after the Karnataka exit polls predicted a hung house, saying, "The situation doesn't arise." Multiple exit polls on Saturday showed conflicting results, some giving an edge to the Congress while some had the BJP ahead. An average of the polls, however, showed a hung house, with the JDS emerging as the kingmaker.
