Government formation

In the elections, the BJP emerged as the single largest party winning 79 of the 224 seats. However, the Indian National Congress with 65 members and the Janata Dal (Secular) with 58 members formed a coalition to run the government. Dharam Singh of the Congress was sworn in as the Chief Minister on 28 May 2004. However, in early 2006, the JD(S) withdrew its support to the government and instead forged an alliance with the BJP. A new government was formed with H. D. Kumaraswamy of the JD(S) as Chief minister and B. S. Yeddyurappa of the BJP as his deputy.
