About 2.59 crore electors will cast their vote at 28,269 polling stations where voting will take place between 7 am to 6 pm.
Karnataka holds greater importance for the BJP in the south as it is the only state where the party was in power in the past. In the 2019 general elections, the saffron party had swept all the 14 seats, leaving the then Congress-JDS alliance in the dust. However, the Congress managed to turn things around in the assembly polls last year, winning 59 out of 91 assembly seats in the 14 districts in the region.
