On charges of "horse-trading" levelled by Congress and JD(S), Amit Shah said: "Had we indulged in horse-trading, today's result would not have been so. They are levelling horse-trading charges against us, but in reality, they bought an entire stable".

Shah also said that the BJP will not make any efforts to bring down Congress govt in Karnataka. He said, however, such govts do not last for longer period
