The momentum of Karnataka Election 2023 is seen to be shifting in BJP's favour with the latest opinion poll commissioned by Asianet News Network and conducted by Jan Ki Baat projecting that the saffron party could emerge as the single largest party. 

Karnataka goes to vote on May 10. The counting of votes will be undertaken on May 13. 

The latest opinion poll, conducted between April 15 and May 1 after ticket distribution and nomination filing by key candidates of three major political parties in the state, shows the BJP gaining ground while the Janata Dal-Secular is struggling to hold on to its vote bank.
