Addressing the media, Yeddyurappa said, "Shortly we will be knowing the final figures, and then we'll decide the future plan. I don't want to talk about Congress or JD(S)."

"Counting is still on. We are waiting to asses all possibilities. The majority of voters have given us their mandate. I don't want to discuss the possible JD(S)-Congress alliance," he added.

The BJP fielded 223 candidates, while the Congress and the JD-S fielded 222 and 201 candidates respectively.
