The 15th Karnataka Legislative Assembly election was held on 12th May 2018 in 222 constituencies of the Karnataka Legislative Assembly. The election was postponed in Jayanagar and Rajarajeshwari Nagar, following the death of the MLA BN Vijaya Kumar and a voter fraud scandal respectively till May 28, 2018.[2] The election saw a voter turnout of 72.13%, which is the highest in Karnataka since 1952 Assembly polls.[3] The counting of votes took place on 15th May 2018. [4]
The incumbent Indian National Congress was seeking re-election, having governed the state since elections in 2013.[5] The Bharatiya Janta Party attempted to regain office, having previously governed the state in 2007 and from 2008 to 2013. The Janata Dal (Secular), and the Bahujan Samaj Party contested the election in an electoral alliance. The Aam Aadmi Party also made its debut in the state.[6] The election led to a hung assembly, with the Bharatiya Janata Party emerging as the single largest party, with 104 seats, but failing to win a majority of seats and popular votes. The Indian National Congress won the popular vote.[7]

Background[edit]
The tenure of 15 th Karnataka Assembly ended on May 28, 2018.[8]
Organization[edit]
The Times of India reported in late February 2018 that the state had fewer electronic voting machines than the minimum mandated requirement to be stored going into elections for any state assembly. The report stated that only 20 per cent or 11,398 EVMs were in place against the requirement of 56,994 machines, one each for a polling station. Bharat Electronics Limited, which provides 80 per cent of the machines began supplying during this time.[9] The District Election Officer for the Bangalore region stated that a "vulnerability mapping exercise" would be conducted to ensure "free and fair polls". He added that 550 Sector teams, each headed by a sector magistrate, a police officer (not below the rank of an Assistant sub-inspector) and a videographer, were formed, one for every 15 of the 8,274 polling stations in the said region.[10]
Schedule[edit]
The schedule of the election was announced by the Election Commission of India on 27 March 2018. It announced that polling would be held in a single phase on 12 May and that results would be declared on 15 May.[11] It also declared that the provisions of the Model Code of Conduct "came into force with immediate effect" with the said announcement.[12][13]

Controversies[edit]
Leaked election dates[edit]
The Election Commission of India ran into a major embarrassment on 27 March 2018, when BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya and Karnataka Congress' social media in-charge, Srivasta, tweeted the dates before they were officially released.[14][15] However, both of them got the counting day incorrect in their tweets. Both the tweets were deleted after an outrage on Twitter. Amit Malviya later claimed that he got the information from Times Now, a 24-hour English news channel.[16] The news was reportedly also shown by a local Kannada news channel. Later it was revealed that even Times Now got the counting day incorrectly as May 18, 2018, instead of May 15, 2018.[17]
Om Prakash Rawat, the Chief Election Commissioner of India, formed a committee to investigate into the alleged leak.[18] The terms of reference of the formed committee included probing certain media outlets and Congress' social media head Srivasta, but not BJP's Amit Malviya.[19] This prompted allegations of the Election Commission of India being biased for the BJP by the Congress.
On 14 April 2018, the committee said that the media reports were mere speculation and not a leak.[20]
Voter ID fraud case[edit]
On 11 May 2018, Congress MLA Munirathna and 13 others were booked in an alleged fake voter ID scam.On 8 May 2018, almost 10,000 voter ID cards, along with several laptops, were found in a flat in Bengaluru owned by former BJP leader Manjula Nanjamari.[21][22] Apart from the voter IDs and laptops, the Munirathna's pamphlets were also found, which turned the needle of suspicion on Munirathna. After the FIR, Munirathna said “I’ve distributed 40,000 pamphlets asking for votes for me in my constituency and you will find them in every home in my segment. I’ve been named as accused no. 14 because one such pamphlet was found in the flat that was raided. This is an outrageous complaint against me and part of the concerted propaganda to harass and humiliate me.”[23][24]
The polling in RR Nagar was postponed to 28 May 2018 and the counting of votes was done on 31 May 2018.
Kaveri river water scandal[edit]
Main article: 2018 Tamil Nadu protests for Kaveri water sharing
The Karnataka Legislative Assembly election sparked criticisms from Tamil Nadu over the Karnataka's government for not addressing the issue on properly and for its delay in setting up a Kaveri Management Board.[25][26] The Supreme Court also issued a strict notice to the Karnataka state government for using the Karnataka Legislative state election as an excuse to resolve the Kaveri riverwater crisis with Tamil Nadu cannot be acceptable. The election was one of the hottest points considered by the critics for the future of Karnataka in dealing with the rivals, Tamil Nadu over the Kaveri River water dispute.[27]
Election campaign[edit]
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) officially began its election campaign on 2 November 2017.[28] The party spent 85 days covering all the assembly constituencies, culminating in Bangalore on 4 February 2018, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressing it.[29] In early March, the party launched a 14-day Protect Bengaluru March travelling across Bangalore aimed at, according to the party, "reviving" and "rebuilding" the city from Indian National Congress' "criminal neglect".[30]
In December 2017, the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee, although not part of the election campaign, undertook a task of setting up booth-level committees at 54,261 locations in the state which will be responsible to disseminate information on various programmes of the ruling Indian National Congress and their implementation. The move was seen as an "extensive outreach programme" preceding the elections.[31]

Preferred Chief Ministerings polling[edit]
Some opinion pollsters asked voters the party leader they would prefer as Chief Minister – Siddaramaiah (Indian National Congress), B. S. Yeddyurappa (Bharatiya Janata Party). or H. D. Kumaraswamy (Janata Dal (Secular)). Lokniti-CSDS conducted surveys between 10 and 15 January interviewing 878 people. While 34 per cent of the sample wanted Siddaramaiah to remain the chief minister for the next term, 19 per cent chose Kumaraswamy and 14 per cent chose Yeddyurappa.[49] A poll conducted by CHS in the same month found that Kumaraswamy was the first choice, followed by Yeddyurappa and Siddaramaiah in that order.[50] C-Fore's survey of a sample size of 22,357 voters across 154 assembly constituencies between 1 and 25 March showed that Siddaramaiah, with 45 per cent, was the most popular choice for Chief Minister, followed by Yeddyurappa at 26 per cent and Kumaraswamy at 13 per cent, while 16 per cent preferred 'others'.[51]
Exit polls[edit]
The exit polls remained divided, with only one predicting that a party - BJP - will get past the majority mark. 5 predicted that BJP will have the most seats, while 2 predicted that the Congress is in comfortable lead, and 1 predicted a cliffhanger. Today's Chanakya exit poll, which was released last and took into account voting right until polling closure time, predicted clear majority for BJP.

An analysis of the result showed that the BJP lost 9 seats with very small margin against the Congress. If 6730 votes had switched over from the Congress to the BJP, the BJP could have won 113 seats. Similarly, the Congress would have needed a minimum of 1,25,608 votes to switch over to its side for it to increase its tally from 78 to 113.[60]

Formation of government[edit]
The Congress party decided to support the JD(S) to form a coalition government.[63] The Congress accepted Kumaraswamy for the post of Chief Minister.[64] The governor Vajubhai Vala, however, invited the BJP, the single largest party after the election result, to form a Government.[65] He gave the party a period of 15 days to prove its strength on the floor of the assembly.[66]
There were several allegations from the Congress and JD(S) that the BJP was trying to "poach" their MLAs. Congress released 6 audio recordings, allegedly trying to persuade their MLAs to vote in favour of the BJP government, in exchange for lavish offers. One of the calls was allegedly made by Yeddyurappa himself, to the Congress lawmaker B. C. Patil.[67] JD(S) chief Kumaraswamy said that their MLAs were being offered Rs. 100 crore to cross vote.[68] Union Minister Prakash Javadekar denied the allegations.[69]
Congress and JD(S) approached the Supreme Court for a midnight hearing to stop the swearing-in ceremony. The hearing started at approximately 2 AM.[70] A three-judge bench consisting of Justices A.K Sikri, S.A Bobde and Ashok Bhushan heard the petition. Even though the swearing-in ceremony was allowed to proceed,[71] on 18 May 2018, the Supreme Court reduced the period allowed for the vote of confidence to 24 hours.[72] The court issued five points of guidance:[73]
The floor test must be conducted by 4 PM on 19 May 2018.
The Protem Speaker should decide the mode of test.
There should be no secret ballot.
The government should not nominate the Anglo-Indian Representative.
B. S. Yeddyurappa's government should not take any major policy decisions.
Disregarding the convention of choosing the most senior MLA as the Protem Speaker, the Governor appointed BJP MLA K. G. Bopaiah to the post.[74] The Congress challenged this in the Supreme Court, noting that Bopaiah was not the most senior MLA, and also that he had a bad track record as the speaker.[75] The Supreme Court allowed Bopaiah to stay as the Protem Speaker, but asked for the live broadcasting of the floor test on all channels.[76]
The Chief Minister Yeddyurappa, unable to muster enough support for the trust vote, resigned after giving an emotional speech.[77]
On 23 May 2018, H. D. Kumaraswamy took oath as the Chief Minister of Karnataka, along with G. Parameshwara as his deputy.[78] Several leaders including Mamata Banerjee, Sitaram Yechury, Mayawati, Akhilesh Yadav, Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi, Pinarayi Vijayan, Chandrababu Naidu were present during the ceremony. It was reported as a display of unity of the opposition ahead of the 2019 general election.[79] On 25 May, Kumaraswamy won the trust vote with the support of 117 MLAs, while the BJP MLAs had walked out ahead of the floor test.[80]
Bypolls[edit]
Bypolls were due to be held in three seats: Jayanagar and Rajarajeshwari Nagar in Bangalore[81] and in Ramanagara.
Rajarajeshwari Nagar election results was declared on May 31, 2018 and INC candidate Munirathna won by a margin of 25,572 votes taking the Congress' tally to 79 seats and the JD(S)-INC coalition to 118 seats.[82]
Jayanagar assembly Election result was declared on June 13, 2018. Sowmya Reddy, daughter of former minister Ramalinga Reddy, won the constituency by defeating BJP's B N Prahlad by 2889 votes. 55% polling was recorded in the Jayanagar Assembly constituency on June 11. The assembly elections were held across the state on May 12, but poll in Jayanagar was countermanded following the death of BJP candidate B N Vijayakumar, who was holding the seat. The JDS had earlier pulled out its candidate, formally supporting its coalition partner Congress.[83][84] This win took the Congress' tally to 80 in the 224 seats assembly and the INC-JD(S) coalition to 119 seats.
The elected Congress MLA for Jamkhandi passed away in a road accident on 28 May 2018.[85]

Port and starboard

Image from the Bayeux Tapestry showing a longship with a steering oar on the starboard side[1]
Diagram showing the schematic view of a ship's position lights.
Port and starboard are nautical and aeronautical terms for left and right, respectively. Port is the left-hand side of a vessel or aircraft, facing forward. Starboard is the right-hand side, facing forward. Since port and starboard never change, they are unambiguous references that are not relative to the observer.[2][3]
The term starboard derives from the Old English steorbord, meaning the side on which the ship is steered. Before ships had rudders on their centrelines, they were steered with a steering oar at the stern of the ship and, because more people are right-handed, on the right-hand side of it.[citation needed] The term is cognate with the Old Norse stýri (steer) and borð (side of a ship).[citation needed] Since the steering oar was on the right side of the boat, it would tie up at the wharf on the other side. Hence the left side was called port.[4]
Formerly, larboard was used instead of port. This is from Middle-English ladebord and the term lade is related to the modern load.[3] Larboard sounds similar to starboard and in 1844 the Royal Navy ordered that port be used instead.[5][non-primary source needed] The United States Navy followed suit in 1846.[6] Larboard continued to be used well into the 1850s by whalers.[citation needed] In Old English the word was bæcbord, of which cognates are used in other European languages, for example as the present Dutch bakboord, the German backbord and the French term bâbord (derived in turn from Middle Dutch).[citation needed]
The navigational treaty convention, the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea—for instance, as appears in the Merchant Shipping (Distress Signals and Prevention of Collisions) Regulations of 1996 (and comparable US documents from the US Coast Guard),[7]—sets forth the rights of way for maritime vessels, whether by sail or powered, and whether a vessel is overtaking, approaching head-on, or crossing.[7]:11-12 To set forth these navigational rules, the terms starboard and port are absolutely essential, and to aid in in situ decision-making, the two sides of each vessel are marked, dusk to dawn, by navigation lights, the vessel's starboard side by green and its port side by red.[7]:15 Aircraft are lit in the same way.

The Treachery of Images (French: La trahison des images [la tʁaizɔ̃ dez imaʒ], 1928–29, sometimes translated as The Treason of Images) also known as This Is Not a Pipe[2] and The Wind and the Song,[3] is a painting by the Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte.
Description[edit]
The picture shows a pipe. Below it, Magritte painted, "Ceci n'est pas une pipe.", French for "This is not a pipe."
The famous pipe. How people reproached me for it! And yet, could you stuff my pipe? No, it's just a representation, is it not? So if I had written on my picture 'This is a pipe', I'd have been lying!
—  René Magritte[4]
Context[edit]
Magritte painted The Treachery of Images when he was 30 years old. It is currently on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.[5] The theme of pipes with the text "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" is extended in Les Mots et Les Images,[6] La Clé des Songes,[7] Ceci n'est pas une pipe (L'air et le chanson),[8] The Tune and Also the Words,[9] Ceci n’est pas une pomme,[10] and Les Deux Mystères.[11]
The painting is sometimes given as an example of meta message conveyed by paralanguage.[12] Compare with Korzybski's "The word is not the thing" and "The map is not the territory".
