Whose Turn After Karnataka?
The H D Kumaraswamy-led Congress-JD(S) government fell after the vote of confidence in Karnataka Assembly on Tuesday.

Now, even in the states like Goa, BJP is looking at ways to attain majority in order to form the government – even though the anti-defection law is in place to prevent this.
