Counting of votes polled for the May 10 Karnataka Assembly polls, which witnessed a fierce fight between archrivals BJP and the Congress, will be taken up on Saturday as parties including the JD(S) wait with bated breath to know the outcome, as hung assembly is a possibility.

The electoral fortunes of top leaders—Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai of the BJP, Congress heavyweights Siddaramaiah and D K Shivakumar and JD(S)’s HD Kumaraswamy, among many others will be known on Saturday.
