"Karnataka has voted for development and punished opportunism," he said in a tweet.

The ruling BJP on Monday swept the Assembly bypolls in Karnataka winning 12 of the 15 seats to help the four-month-old Yediyurappa government retain majority.

"I thank the people of Karnataka for placing their faith in @BJP4India. I congratulate CM @BSYBJP, team of Ministers in the state and the @BJP4Karnataka karyakartas (workers) for serving people with utmost diligence," he said.
