Why are they coming and desecrating the holy land of Karnataka? Stay away, you are nothing but poison. Let our state live in peace. We have enough good leaders in every party to manage on their own without the poisonous shadow from you three. The whole world has realized what kind of leaders we have at the center. We only see three more of your ilk, Putin, Kim Jong Un & Xi Jinping. In 70 years, Congress and Vajpayee BJP, put India on the world map with high respect and the RSS BJP destroyed it within 9 years completely reflecting our name in the bottom 10.

Even with it's star campaigners, the BJP may find it difficult to retain the pole position it held in the last general election. The incumbent state Congress retains a upper hand due to it's freebies.
