“Namaskara. Today is your day! Ensure that the state of Karnataka wins today. Choose Progress. #CongressWinning150,” the party posted from its official Twitter handle, sharing pictures of the party chief Mallikarjun Kharge and his family after they had casted their votes in Kalaburagi's Basava Nagar.

"I've been voting at that polling booth for the last 55 years. Seeing the enthusiasm of the people, I feel that my party will come to power and we will win with the majority. Poor people live there and my principle is to give my vote to the poor, that is why I and my wife go there every time to give our vote," he added.

The Congress party also shared pictures of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) chief D K Shivakumar and Leader of Opposition Siddaramaiah showing off their inked fingers after casting their votes.
