Meanwhile, the Congress party is also making a strong bid for power.

The ongoing election campaign in Karnataka has brought special attention to Belagavi, with leaders from Maharashtra also participating in an attempt to win over Marathi voters. Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis faced opposition from the Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti, who showed him black flags during an election rally in Belagavi.
