While the BJP was banking on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's personal appeal to fight "anti-incumbency" in Karnataka, the party lost in most of the constituencies where the PM had campaigned.
According to the BJP, Modi addressed as many as 19 public meetings and six road shows, the last one being on May 6, across Karnataka.
However, the saffron party faced defeat in most of the constituencies and won just a few where Modi had paid a visit ahead of the Karnataka Assembly elections.
