The BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) election results have indeed surprised many people, including the BJP, which managed to win 111 seats out of 198 seats. Given the communal conflicts that have rocked the State ever since the BJP government came to power, one would not have expected such a massive win for the BJP. It’s therefore a surprise (equally shocking!) that BJP has managed to win the BBMP elections handsomely. What is even more intriguing is that the BJP had fielded a few candidates from the minority communities, though only one managed to win a seat.
Let us now look at each Assembly Constituency and see whether the Bengalurians have consciously voted for the BJP.

A closer look at these results, which is based on the data available at BBMP website http://bbmpelections.kar.nic.in/ suggests that only in 52 wards the BJP has secured a vote share of 50 per cent and above. Therefore, one can easily declare that the Bengalurians haven't consciously voted for the BJP in the BBMP elections. If there was an electoral understanding between the Congress and the JDS they would have easily won over 120 seats.
This result shows that all is not lost yet. If only the Congress and JDS learn their lessons, Karnataka can be easily desaffronized. But the question is when will the Congress and JDS learn their lessons?
