The fortunes of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) have reportedly declined as the party candidates who participated in Karnataka’s assembly elections lost overwhelmingly. Senior party leader Brijesh Kalappa won just 0.47% of the vote, losing even to the candidate from Uttama Prajaakeeya Party who finished second last. The seat was won by Uday B. Garudachar of the BJP who defeated his Congress rival R.V. Devraj by a considerable margin. AAP candidates Sujata P. Chavan secured 988 votes while the party's Prabhuswamy B.S. got just 1,834 votes.
