New Delhi : The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Saturday finally withdrew support to the Janata Dal-Secular (JD-S) government in Karnataka and demanded fresh elections in the state.

BJP leader Yashwant Sinha made the announcement here after Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy refused to hand over power to BJP despite a pledge taken 20 months ago when they formed a coalition government.

"We want immediate elections," Sinha said. "We have learnt a lesson, we have to be careful in future (while forming coalitions)."
