Claim: In Karnataka elections, BJP lost 58 seats by a margin of 2000 votes & 41 seats by a margin of 1000 votes.
Fact-check: In the Karnataka elections, BJP lost 5 seats with a margin of less than 2000 votes, not 99 - FACTLY
Verdict: in the recently held karnataka elections, there are only 12 such constituencies, where the margin of the winning candidate is below 2000. while the bjp won 7 of these 12 seats, the congress party won the remaining five seats. this implies that the bjp lost only five seats in this election by a margin of less than two thousand votes. further, bjp did not lose any seat with a margin between 1000-2000 votes. hence the claim made in the post is false.
