May 23 acid test for 3 top Karnataka leaders

The Lok Sabha election results, to be announced on May 23, will decide if the HD Kumaraswamy government in Karnataka survives. Anything above 15 seats will allow Kumaraswamy to continue in power. Anything less than that will mean that he will have to brace for Congress calls for a change of guard and efforts by the BJP to pull down the government. The results may also decide the future of BJP state president BS Yeddyurappa and CLP leader and former chief minister Siddaramaiah.
