Karnataka voters remember BJP gave 3 CMs between 2008-13 despite getting majority: Chidambaram

Batting for the re-election of the Congress in Karnataka, senior party leader P Chidambaram today said voters of the state would remember that despite giving an absolute majority to the BJP in 2008, they got "instability" for five years under three chief ministers of the saffron party.

In a series of tweets, the former finance and home minister said Karnataka voters would compare the five years of "stability and development" under the Congress government led by Siddaramaiah with the five years of "instability and infighting" under the BJP's three chief ministers.

"Karnataka voters will remember: in 2008 when they gave BJP an absolute majority with 110 seats, BJP gave the people absolute instability!
